Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly.

It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?
