Hedge Fund Operations Interview

Hello all,

This is my first post on the site so I apologize if this is not the correct forum. I have an upcoming interview for a hedge fund operations role. The job responsibilities listed on the job posting are quite vague (executing and reconciling trades, and other general administrative duties) so I was hoping to reach out to everyone to see if they could recommend anything in particular to focus on while prepping for the interview. I know it may difficult to provide specific tips without knowing what systems/software this firm is using, however any general advice would be greatly appreciated.

This is an entry level position and something I have no previous experience doing.

Thanks in advance for your help!
