I'm about to interview for a FT junior research position at a BB and was wondering how much accounting knowledge I am expected to know? I read the Rosenbaum book on investment banking and have looked through SEC filings as well as watched YouTube videos on accounting. Would you guys say that's enough for someone with an engineering degree and no valuation industry experience? What's a good place to test my knowledge and practice my financial accounting?
