Deciphering Email I received from a banker.. help!

I have been emailing banks asking for internships and I received an email from the bankers assistant saying they want to meet me... Is this an interview??- Im going to wear a suit but was wondering if I should bring a folder with resumes and everything as well.

No, it's probably not a formal interview, but I would sure treat it like one. Bring a small folder with a few resumes in case someone asks for one. If you're serious, you should always be ready to answer the basic non-technical/fit questions: i.e. Why IB, recent deals, etc.

I highly doubt they will ask you any technicals at this point. They probably just want to meet you to make sure you're not a complete weirdo. Good luck.
