Pre-Interview Happy Hour

Hey guys,

I have been invited to a pre-interview happy hour with a Houston IB and was just wondering what I should expect? Also is typically dress for these things a suit? This is my first ib interview.

Thanks for any input you may have.

 

Seconded with what HEBanker said. This is your time to ask questions about the bank, culture, and hopefully make a personal connection with an interviewer. Remember to be professional. These are not your co-wokers (yet). Also, please don't be that kid who decides to bring up rising interest rates or what the Fed plans to do within the few months, etc.

In terms of attire, I'd be conservative and wear a suit. You can always take off the tie if it's a more business casual place.
