I got an interview coming up

Hey guys I got called out of the blue for a interview for a FI Institutional sales-trading role. I have never had an experience interviewing for a position like this and was wondering if any of my fellow monkeys had any advice on what to expect. What kind of brain teasers should I expect? Should I bring a couple of bond pitches just incase the role is more trading oriented? Also does anyone know where I can brush up on my bond valuation techniques?

Thanks for all of the help guys

DurbanDiMangusTo increase the quality of answers I think you should post this in IB Bullpen, HF, and definitely VC Vernacular. Maybe consulting, you never know.

I was thinking about the wardrobe section as well, but I thought that might be a bit tasteless.
