Help for Private / Structured Credit Interview

Hi guys, have an upcoming interview with a MM private / structured credit fund that originates and invests in a wide range of credit securities - senior secured, asset-backed, mezz/pref, NPL pools, "specialty loans," etc. A member of the team informed me that i would be asked to "evaluate & price a wide range of loan types" and be quizzed about q wide range of industries but wouldn't elaborate further. Very open-ended. Anyone know of a good resource/primer to prepare--other than reading a fabozzi type text, which i don't have time for? Don't know where to begin, as i currently work in a completely different field. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
