Illiquid / Structured Credit Interview

Hi All

I have an interview coming up with a special situations / structured finance trading team. The team is active across - Specialty finance (receivables, equipment leases), special sits (bridge loans, acquisition finance), infra/project finance and distressed debt.

Does anyone have help for what to expect in the interview (i.e. evaluating / pricing these loans) / elaborate on a typical 'trade'?

I come from a private debt background

Thank you!
