Know the hedge fund industry and things like what's happened to their AUM over the last couple of years. Know how a PB makes their money (financing client positions).
is it for FT or SA i heard they dont recruit FT, only pull from their SA class.
isn't prime brokerage back office?
prime brokerage is super BO
PB is not really bo, depends which part you work in...

also went to superday today, would love to hear if anyone hears back

i missed a phone call from them an hour ago, just called back but she had already left the office. Anyone get any calls about travel receipts or background checks?
the voicemail just said she wanted to follow up with a few things?
