Houlihan PV FT Interview

I am currently in the process for a full-time portfolio valuation analyst position at Houlihan Lokey and have an interview lined up. It’s going to be a 30-minute behavioral interview followed by a 45-minute technical portion.

Has anyone here gone through this process recently? Any advice on what the behavioral part might cover or what to expect in the technical section? I’d really appreciate any insights.
