Interviewing with Analysts

Hi guys--

I have first-round interviews with analysts - 1 at a BB and 2 at a boutique.

Usually, it's pretty easy for me to communicate with senior people, especially MDs. It's great to get them to tell me about their stories, and I don't even have to feign interest.

It's harder for me to connect with analysts in the same way. Do you guys have any advice?
