Importantly - any good places to start in terms of interview prep?
Anything helps.

Some EBs have Private Capital Advisory and a separate Private Funds group (names vary by bank unfortunately) but the first is more traditional banking (focusing on PIPEs etc in normal companies and appreciate equity markets/ECM experience) and the second is what was described above but may also include secondaries transactions which are more technical.
