Surveyor / Global Equities Case Study

I'm a 2nd year analyst at a BB participating in a case study for Surveyor / Global Equities at Citadel. I know this has been covered, but does anyone know what to expect for pods that are focused on a niche industry (e.g., oil & gas, real estate, FIG, etc.)? I'm in a consumer retail coverage group at my BB and the team knows that I have no experience in their particular industry. Would the case study involve a typical cash flow business or do I have to learn how to build a model for that specific sector in preparation for the case study?
