Rx, Special Situations Recruiting Advice

Hi all, hope everyone is safe and well.

Looking to recruit for Rx banking for SA 2021 and was wondering if any current analysts/interns could provide any general advice on helpful resources, interview process, timeline, when to start networking, what worked for them?

Currently churning through Moyer, material is pretty interesting but it's a bunch of material and unsure of how to prep for interview questions.

I'm also wondering if it'd be easier to recruit for M&A. Smaller talent pool but self-selecting for Rx?

Thanks a ton for the help WSO. feel free to post or dm, really appreciate it.
