Hey there,
Sounds like you've got an exciting opportunity ahead! Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's a bit of insight into what you might expect:
As a structurer, your day-to-day tasks will involve creating and managing complex financial products. This could include derivatives, bonds, loans, and other types of financial instruments. You'll be working closely with the sales and trading teams, as well as clients, to develop solutions that meet specific investment or risk management needs.
In terms of the main products in credit structuring, these could include credit derivatives, collateralized debt obligations, and other structured credit products.
For your interview, you might want to brush up on your understanding of these products, as well as broader market trends and regulations. You should also be prepared to discuss any relevant experience you have in this area.
In terms of technical questions, these could range from your understanding of different financial models, to how you would structure a particular product to meet a client's needs. You might also be asked about your understanding of risk and how to manage it in the context of structured products.
Remember, every interview is a two-way street. It's not just about them finding out if you're a good fit for the role, but also about you finding out if this is the right opportunity for you. So don't be afraid to ask your own questions!
Good luck with your interview! You've got this.
