Private Capital Advisory Interview

Can anyone who has gone through PCA interviews provide some guidance on what to expect / tips? 
 

I have a good sense of the space as it relates to fund placement and secondaries but haven't interviewed for PCA before so curious what the process looks like.

my pca interview was focused on a deal the team did and how they structured it. I would try to look at that or find general PCA deals. No one knows how these deals even work so knowing the basics goes a long way.
