Investment Banking after Phd in Engineering

I am currently pursuing my Phd in Aerospace Engineering. I am looking forward to work as a quant in Wall Street after my graduation. My research area is structural optimization and I have a good background in mathematics and computation. I know it is possible but I am interested in knowing how to prepare myself for the interviews. What are the topics I should cover.

Quia beatae eos illo aliquid error. Voluptatibus deserunt et animi optio quaerat expedita.

Quasi eos autem voluptatem quis et rerum. Quidem magni dicta et animi atque. Quia quaerat autem iure blanditiis. Commodi porro voluptate ullam minus. Quia vel ducimus voluptates non sunt.
