Coverage Recruiting Process/Interview prep

Hi all,

while there is a lot of info/guides about the M&A/PE/... interview process out there, I couldn't find a whole lot for coverage groups. And yes, I am aware that it depends on the industry group, but I still think it would be interesting to hear from people who made it into coverage about their experience with the recruiting process. Eg.: Do you need to know about M&A, DCM and ECM in detail? Or is it more about the specific industry group you are interviewing with?

Cheers!
