Elliott - interview process

Hi,

Does anyone have insight on what to expect in an interview process for Elliott? E.g. # of rounds, if there's a case study / what sort of case study, etc.

Given they're activist / special sits / flexible mandate I'm unsure what to expect vs a pod or long-only SM where you're likely to get a name and be asked to do a model and make a recommendation.

Thank you in advance
