Best Books for Finance Interviews

I'm a senior from a non-target graduating in a month. I've put in a good amount of time reviewing my resumé and getting it critiqued, as well as applying and networking. I've gotten a good amount of interviews and even a couple Superdays, but have yet to land an offer. 

This leads me to believe that I am doing something wrong in my interviews. I am naturally introverted, but try to make a connection with my interviewer while also showing them I'm fit for the role. Is there any books are helpful with behavioral and/or technical questions?

I've read good things about Heard on the Street, but from I can tell it seems more geared towards quantitative finance. I'm looking for asset management, equity research, corporate banking roles, but am applying to almost anything at this point if that helps. Any suggestions?
