Feeling not prepared for IB intership

Hi everyone,

Currently doing an internship in PE and about to start an internship at a boutique (HL/WB/Jefferies) in Europe. I have gained some previous experience at a very small boutique but do not feel prepared. The team is small and probably going to get quite some responsibilities.

What can I do to feel more prepared? Read 400IB?

Thanks in advance!

 

You are not expected to know much beforehand, just put your head down when you hit the desk
