PJT SA Interview

Non-core, Have a first round interview coming up with PJT Strategic Advisory. Can anyone provide any advice on their interviews and types of questions they ask? Are they mostly technical, because I've also read that some people received mostly behavioral questions. Looking to have an updated discussion as most previous discussions also seem to be revolved around RSSG and not Strategic Advisory.

Went through process recently, first round all technical, second round all fit. Technicals are more "case based" vs. straight out of the book
