How to prep for this interview? Risk analyst at Energy Future Holdings

Hi everyone,

I have a second round with EFH for this position: https://www.linkedin.com/jobs2/view/13249735

Does anyone have thoughts on how to prep for this kind of interview? The first round was pretty basic (why do you want to work here, career goals, how good are your Excel skills, do you have experience with Bloomberg/other financial software, and what factors affect the value of an option).

Do you know what kind of themes or questions come up for a risk interview like this? If you're in Dallas, drinks on me at Primebar if I land this--not even joking, PM me and I'd be happy to meet some fellow WSOers in the area.

Know different instruments (physical, EFP, futures, swaps) along how to MTM against their relevant indexes. Be able to calculate and understand VAR. Excel skills will always help since you'll be looking at a bunch of tabs/spreadsheets. Usual "why do you want to work here and career"
