Lazard - Lateral Hire Modelling Test (London)

I was invited for a modelling test and was told this includes doing a trading comps valuation and a DCF valuation using a broker note.

I get what they are testing on the DCF but trading comps is mostly a pull from CIQ / Factset + bridge adjustments, so am a bit confused what they will be looking at

Anyone been through this previously? insights are much appreciated!
