I potentially have a lateral interview at Jefferies and am curious if anyone has gone through the process of interviewing and can shed some light on what to expect. I have a Mergers & Inquisitions guide that I'm going through but am pretty worried about technicals and don't want to blow this. Any help would be appreciated!

Take a look at my lateraling guide. Your questions will be almost entirely fit and based off of the transactions listed on your resume. They may ask a few technical questions, but the ones that I always got were straightforward and just a way to make sure that I was thinking.
Thank you! I'm actually working in management consulting and have no deal experience. I'm assuming I'll get more technicals than you did?
