Goldman Sachs Asset Management Private Credit Interview

Hey All -- Just landed a phone interview for GSAM's Private Credit Group (credit alternatives). Anyone have any experience or insights on the group or the interview process? I'm from a slightly non-traditional background (not LevFin or Corporate IBanking) so any tips for prepping technicals for a private credit interview would be mad appreciated.
