In general would say go in with as much curiosity and demonstrate interest and ask questions. To best position yourself it helps to have some foundational knowledge so you're not completely lost. While "there's no stupid questions " generally applies when you're an intern, people operate on different levels of patience and teaching prowess.

Add bond math (duration, convexity, different types of spreads) and derivatives knowledge (swaps, futures, etc. if applicable) to this list also. Good luck!

Hi lads,
Anyone please help me understand what would be my monthly salary that will get credited, with/without the tax deduction on monthly basis.

And I'm new to all this I don't know what is variable pay, basic etc. Please help understand this by writing few description on above points. Also by submitting the home rent agreement how much will be saving, and will that only be sufficient or i can add more bills to avoid the dedication. If yes what types of bills i can submit like fuel bills etc.
