Best Books/ Guides to learn about Stock Value Investing

Anyone has any recommendations on what books/ guides to best read/ study in a short amount of time ()1 week) to get up to speed on value investing and learning what makes a good business/ company to invest in?

I have a final round coming up with a MF and would love to hear any insights. I don't have any prior public investing previously but did IBD and PE before.

What are the technical questions people usually get in a final round for a MF?

Bruce Greenwald is interesting because he dedicates a chapter on each method of valuation from different practitioners (many of whom haven't made money in ages/are retired) but it's a good read and easy to digest.

Good Luck

I used to do Asia-Pacific PE (kind of like FoF). Now I do something else but happy to try and answer questions on that stuff.
