Modeling and Research practice

Looking to start interviewing for HF’s. I know there has been a lot of advice previously posted as to what to do. I was wondering if anybody used any specific training for modeling and then a write up or has any resources they would like to share.

Currently modeling credit paydowns and writing from the perspective of LevFin lending. Trying to broaden my knowledge.

Thanks.
