I have a first round interview coming up for an experienced analyst role in the industrials sector in Chicago and was wondering if anyone had any insight on what to expect. I'm expecting the classics - Why IB? Why RJ? Why MM? Note its with the hiring manager and not HR.
Anything else to be prepared for? Any advice on the office/culture in Chicago specifically?
