Looking for video/tutorial explaining basic instruments

Hi all,
I'm going to have interview in investing bank for software developer role. I actually already have two of those, but they didn't have budget at the time so they didn't hire me. I used to work for other investment bank so I have some basic knowledge, I'm looking to refresh my memory. I don't need to become expert, I would like something explaining what instrument is, when and why is used and how each side of trade behave, example:
Credit default swaps - swap floating interest rate for fixed, one side eliminate risk of changing interest, other want to profit from difference.

If I'm posting it in wrong community please forgive me and point me to right place if possible. Much appreciated :)
