How to prepare a GCM interview

Hi folks,

How do you prepare for a MS GCM interview? What is it different from a IBD interview? I heard that is less heavy in technical questions but more focused on markets. But what market information should one be focusing on when preparing for the interview? Also, what sort of technical question should one be ready for?

Is there anything else that one should prepare?

Thanks
