HF interview advice

Hey all

I have a upcoming interview with a mid - large HF (quantitive). No specific job role has been specified by them.

I am a final year undergrad studying computer science at a semi-target university. And with some (6month) experience in value investing HF.

What should I be doing to get prepared for the interview. Like a lot of HFs there isn’t a lot online about the specific shop.

Thanks and TIA
