Biotech Hedge fund interview - what to prepare

What to prepare for biotech hedge fund interviews? So far I’ve gathered:

  • Stock pitch
  • Areas we’re following/interested in (eg oncology, which stocks and why)
  • Behavioral (eg why HF, why this fund etc)

Anything else? Any take home exercise for example? Excel modeling test?
