PJT Park Hill Group Hedge Fund Distribution Interview

Hi guys,

I have a first round interview coming up in the coming days and was wondering if somebody could give me some advice on what to expect. I'm currently employed in a small merchant bank and had a 6mo internship at a PE fund. I don't have too much background on HFs but I understand what they are, different strategies and fee structures. I guess I'm just curious to what extent this interview will be like? Are there any topics that I should give greater importance before the interview? I'm meeting with two directors and if successful I will meet with the head in the second interview. Any advice will be helpful. Thanks
