Have an interview in London with a bulge bracket investment bank within Treasury Structured Credit Investments. This is aimed at a slightly experienced graduate level position as a treasury dealer involving hedging of interest rates, foreign exchange, forward FX, Spot and structured swaps.Just wondering what type of questions I could be faced with, any major current event that I would be expected to know about and how I can promote myself at the interview?Thanks.

Define "slightly experienced".

The interview is very soon! The experience is aimed at someone with 1-2 years post uni experience, with a good understanding (why am I been considered?) of how they can hedge a range of fixed income investments (useing low risk T-bonds and commercial papers - all AAA etc....so completely risk adverse). Also, working heavily between investors and brokers and promoting ideas...Any advice?? I'm talking major soon...Cheers!

Since you'll be working with governments it all starts with the financing book or repo book, so be prepared to discuss funding issues as well as hedging.

Ok, interview has been taken - so just have to wait for feedback..

How was it?

Reasonable - I made 1 in 5 CV's that they filtered from 100+
