Nothing too hard but here are some of the questions:
I was given a few scenarios about honesty in the classroom/workplace and asked me what I would do in each scenario. I was also asked about recent trends in the market, unemployment rates, and interest rates. I was also asked to talk about my future goals and why I wanted to be in investment banking. All in all, it went very smoothly and there was not any technical questions until the second interview (and even then, there were only a few of those).
