I am a sophomore interning at a small boutique IB.
When going for BB and Boutique SA interviews next year, what sorts of questions would I be asked regarding my experience here? How much detail will they want me to go into regarding some of the pitches and deals I am working on this summer?
I am trying to figure out what I need to remember, and how much detail I may need. Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks!

How should I present IB boutique internship experience? (Originally Posted: 10/04/2011)
.
would like to know also
i think its your job to come up with bullet points. if you worked on deals, explain what you contributed. dont just say pitchbook, financial modeling, and bs like that. elaborate. Post what you come up with and somebody here should be able to proof read it and give you advice.
For the training, just say you had financial modeling training or took a course (no need to name the course) under skills.
I have no idea how I'm going to to describe my summer internship (Originally Posted: 05/29/2008)
I have a front office trading job at a major bank (not an investment bank though)
Basically I'm in offshore funding, and we trade t-bills and loans and shit. I just started, but they make most of their money through the spreads between the federal discount rate. They also make money by taking over night deposits, and paying below the federal discount rate. They also do foreign exchange swaps I believe, but aren't the foriegn exchange desk. Most of their trading is more of "sales" like...Corporations and banks call asking to either deposit or borrow money, and they try to get the highest profit while maintaining the relationship. Its basically some hybrid between sales and trading, and is within the company corporate treasury department. It's not very hard core trading, although it is fast paced ( shit load of phone calls). They refer to themselves as front-office traders, and we have an operations support team... But I have no idea how I'm going to put this on my resume.
Any ideas?
Wow, I'm doing the EXACT same thing as you for my internship except with forex rather than bonds. They labeled me as a sales intern, but like you said it's a mix between sales and trading.
hey, can you PM where you are working?
