BlackRock Alternatives Specialists insights?

Anyone have any insights on this team within BR alternatives? I can't seem to find much info about what they actually do at junior levels or summer internships and how exactly they work together with the investments team. How does it compare to IB or other teams within BR for starting your career in terms of hours, pay etc?
