What are some specific resources that will prepare me for interviews in general? There are threads which list what to expect in IB interviews but what are some books/articles that will help in answering those types of behavioral questions.

Hey LifeIsGood7, what a lonely thread. I'm here since nobody responded ...so maybe one of these discussions will help:

I hope those threads give you a bit more insight.
I recommend the WSO IB Interview Guide as well as the Breaking into Wall Street Behavioral Interview Guide.
.
If you google "400 questions for investment banking" there is a PDF of the BIWS questions list. Go through it and mentally sketch out a rough answer to each. I would have at least 5-6 example scenarios ready to go (ie during x project... the time when I worked on y team..) which you can then adapt what parts you say depending on the question that is asked.
IMO a lot of the questions are based on follow ups to these basic "tell me about a time when" stories, so make sure you can also speak to what went well during each project/what didn't, your specific role, team dynamics, etc.
A lot of technical questions didn't "click" for me until I built a 3 statement model and DCF myself. This helps you really see how all the lingo you're memorizing works in practice. I'd recommend A Simple Model - lots of great free videos with excel sheets to work through.
