CB to IB Interviews

Have been able to get a couple of interviews in IB coming from a CB program. My question is: will I get a more technical heavy interview because I come from CB? I know some in IB look down upon CB, so I’m curious if they’ll grill me more than usual. Thanks

Networking a ton - getting interviews exclusively from my network. Looking for MM IB or to lateral within my BB to IB, which believe it or not is possible, although difficult.
