Corporate Action Trading

Hi

Does anyone know about Corporate Action trading strategies? Eg Scrip trading or trading around other corporate action events? I presume this type of trading takes place in equity finance/delta 1 space of capital markets divisions of dealer banks. Anyone with specific knowledge would be be appreciated. I have 10 years trading experience in equity derivatives on yield enhancement and arbitrage side but no corp action trading experience and I am going for a job interview soon so would like some insight into potential strategies

Thanks

Johnser
