Point72 interview

Hello all,

I know this topic has been covered and I have reviewed the previous posts on this but just wanted to see if anyone has any additional details on how to prep for an interview with Point72. I've done the modeling and iq test and it's a phone interview. Multiple people have mentioned brainteasers and that case study isn't really important. Is that true? Any other tips?

Thanks.
