URG - 1 Hour Pen and Paper Technical - Bulge Bracket Corporate Banking + DCM, IG Debt, and LVG Debt

Hey everyone,

I have a technical interview lined up in a couple of days and I am hoping I could get some assistance.

The interview is with Citi, their CIB group where they cover Corporate Banking, DCM, and basically anything that isn't ECM or M&A.

Would anyone be willing to share some advice on how to prepare for a pen and paper-only 1-hour interview?

What sort of questions should I expect apart from "how do the three statements changed when you do X to line item Y"?

I'm wondering how much I should know about fixed income, they did say the most important items would be accounting, and financial modeling.

Please help :)
