Navigating Extremely Technical Interviews
Hi Fellow Monkeys,
I am a junior at a liberal arts school studying something very non-quanty but have an interview lined up next week with an elite boutique that is known to have extremely rigorous technical interviews. I spoke with an analyst beforehand and he said that even though my background is not one of finance/accounting/etc. I will be grilled just as heavily as candidates from target schools who are studying finance and that "none of the questions will look like anything you have seen in the guides."
I have had a few interviews before and only studied the guides thus far, but I am extremely worried, and wondering what I can do to prepare in the next week and for this situation in the future for these in-depth grueling technical interviews...
Are there any resources out there to consider?

These are your options: (1) "Investment Banking" by Rosenabum and Pearl (2) BITWS Vault Guide (400 questions) (3) WSO Technical Questions Guide (4) BITWS youtube page -- plethora of videos covering topics from LBO's to EBITDAvsEBITvsNI
This is all you should do -- I don't know what else you CAN do -- except build your own models and practice understanding how everything flows
Best
Try not to memorize and try to have a good understanding of the overall picture in what time you have.
I'm sure this has been harped on a million times already.
