Introductory initial call with senior analyst

Hey everyone,

I’ve got a call coming up with a senior analyst at a MM shop tomorrow morning. He says it’s just introductory and casual, but I want to be as best prepared as possible since he’s very involved with recruitment.

Since the call is coming up so soon - how would you prepare if you were me? I don’t think he’ll ask many technicals, so what kinds of questions do you think I should focus on preparing answers for?

For reference, he’s a college friend of someone I used to work with before grad school so that’s how I got his contact info. I’m about 6 months out of grad school now, and I’m working in a pretty unrelated role but it is transaction oriented (something similar to TAS at a big 4).

Should I get my ‘story’ polished and prep for experience related questions or should I expect more of a casual “buddy” conversation (sports, etc.)

Thanks for your help.
