What to expect from 1st Round Interview with SM L/S fund?

I'm a sophomore at a target (UMich/Stern) and have a 1st round interview coming with a lowkey but known SM L/S fund coming up. The fund runs a structured interview process so its not an informal 1st round or anything. What kind of questions do you guys think I'll be asked? I'm gonna try to have a long and short pitch ready but I'm thinking it may also just be all behavioral and fit based for this round, but not sure. How should I proceed? Any advice or help is appreciated. Thanks.

 

Hey sorry for late response. They contacted the student-run investment fund I'm in, although cold emailing these folks could have also probably worked.
