quick interview question

hey guys,

ive been networking real hard for an i-banking SA position for 2011 (sent over 400 emails). two of the emails i sent friday were to MD's from the same boutique in NYC. both replied monday asking me to come into the conference room at their office for an interview. what kind of questions can i expect? do you think theyll be hitting me with technicals this early? or is it going to be fit?

any thoughts? you guys have been a huge help in the past and i appreciate it

how old are you / do you have any relevant internships or anything on your resume that would indicate technical knowledge?

regardless, you should know your basics (wacc, dcf, relative value, basic accounting, etc.)
