I have a Superday coming up for an investment banking role and want to make sure I’m ready. I know it usually involves multiple interviews in one day, covering both technical and behavioral questions. What’s the best way to structure your preparation? Any tips?

Congrats on landing a Superday – that’s already a big achievement!
From my experience, it helps to structure prep into three buckets:
- Technicals: Focus on the core areas (valuation, accounting, M&A, LBOs). Practice explaining concepts out loud until it feels natural.
- Behaviorals: Prepare 5–6 strong stories (Why IB, Why this firm, teamwork, leadership, conflict). Keep them flexible so you can adapt.
- Stamina & Mindset: It’s a marathon day. Get enough rest, stay hydrated, and remind yourself: you’ve already earned the seat, now it’s about showing personality and fit.
Pro tip: do a mock run of 3–4 mock interviews a day or two before to build endurance.
And remember it’s not about knowing everything, but about showing you’re someone they want to work with at 2am. You’ve got this! 🙌
