IB 1 on 1 phone interview skills test, what to expect?

I have a phone interview at a MM IB and from what I've heard, it's just a skills test but I'm rather new and now sure what to expect. Am I suppose to be expecting tough technical questions or behavioral or some of both?

A phone IB interview typically can consist of... * walk me through your resume / your story * why banking / why this bank / why this group / why this location * maybe a question or two from your resume (like what you did in your previous internship, or something about your school, frat, hobbies etc.) * a few technicals from the "500 questions" * chance for you to ask questions

If you're only getting technically grilled then would just expect a bunch of q's related to stuff on the "500 questions" list

Be excellent to each other, and party on, dudes.
