FP&A / Corporate Analyst Interview at Private Equity Firm

Hey guys, wanted to get some advice on what I should expect for an interview for FP&A / Corporate at a big international PE firm, NY office. Most interviews I've been in are for ER so they've been more technical questions on WACC, DCF, etc.... This is my first interview for a corporate Analyst and I don't know what to expect. This is an entry level position. The description is below:

Job Description:

  • Prepare and run reports
  • Quarterly and monthly financial reports and reconciliations, budget and forecast controls
  • Analysis of trends of revenue, capex, expenses, key performance indicators, performance fees.
  • Work on the continued development and automatization of Budgeting, Financial Forecasting, Financial Reports and Modeling tools, budget/forecast processes, board meetings and internal presentations

I've only had ER experience on my resume, but have a Finance degree.

What types of questions should I expect? From my understanding most will be behavioral...

Thanks!
