How technical are FT lateral interviews?
Hi everyone,
My older brother did not start in IB and now after a year working in some middle office role he would like to lateral to IB. I went through the SA recruiting process, and I was wondering how technical ready he should be. He has never really studied the 400q guide and does not know how to model so we will start from there but I was wondering if anyone has some experience with what level he should reach to be able to lateral - ofc we are not shooting for best groups on the streets but maybe a low BB or MM.
Thanks a lot!

Depends on the firm, if they think he's vetted for technical skills, probably not much. They tend to dig into your deal experience a lot more so if that's missing, then back to technicals, especially if he's Lacking the skills currently.
he has no deal experience basically
Will vary firm to firm, but the interview will tend to be more technical if you're coming from outside a front office IB role and don't have deal experience
thanks, but how much technical compared to SA? just trying to understand how much I should prepare him.
Like should he know technical more than I do since I am yet to start FT? or he will be getting questions similar to SA?
