I applied for the investment banking summer analyst position in November 2013. They asked me lots of behavior questions instead of technical ones. Basically, they asked me questions such as "why IBD". "tell me any deals you are interested at / done by Morgan Stanley in the past few years"
1. HR call of around 20 minutes for general basic questions: availability, why MS, why Budapest, what is M&A...
2. Technical Interview with London employee: very intense and many typical IB questions; both theoretical (types of debt, explain valuation methods with detail and reasoning of them...) and practical (pen and paper for calculations).

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
walk me through your resume, what is a merger or an acquisition you would do, go through the three financial statements
It was standard from the guides, if you have the 400 question guide you will be totally fine, its nothing really beyond that at the interviews. You don't need to fundamentally understand banking.
