BNP Fixed Income Structuring

As I've an interview coming up, I'd appreciate if someone could shed some light on some possible technical questions related to FI structuring (especially pertaining to BNP).

In addition, for those familiar with the strength of BNP in the FI business, which asset class(es) within FI are they particularly strong in? I am aware they're relatively strong for their structured products, especially in the Equity Derivatives domain but am not that familiar with the strength of their FI business (or its relative strength compared to other houses).

Besides, which are the other banks/firms that would be their main rivals in this particular asset class(es)?

I'd appreciate any help I can get to make an informed decision. Thanks for any insights provided...

 
Jimbo:
what is your background?

Do they vary their questions in accordance with the background? I'm an electrical engineering major with a financial maths minor btw...
