Help! - Undergraduate Interview Prep

Hi, hope everyone is having a great day so far. For some context, I'm currently a sophomore at a semi/non-target studying finance. Following a successful cover letter submission, I now have an interview scheduled next week at a long only hedge fund. A lot of the guides that I've found online are geared towards with 3-4 years of professional experience and they're not really that helpful. Apart from preparing a couple ideas for a stock pitch, how can one prepare for a HF interview? Really appreciate your time and consideration.
