Please Help! I need all the help I can get. Thank you SOOO much!!!

I have an interview with a mid-sized HF(200 mm)scheduled for tomorrow. I am in banking for less than a year and from a libral arts background. Can anyone tell me how technical the interviews at HF get? How should I effectively prepare for it in such a short period of time? I am still a newbie in the HF industry so any help or insight would be GREATLY appreciated!
