Associate Interview for SPAC?

I'm a mid-market M&A IB analyst with an upcoming associate model test for a PE / alternatives firm's latest SPAC...I have never really seen this type of role before so I really don't know what to expect. I have a 3 hour case study with them and am not sure if I should expect a traditional LBO model test (For the sake of simplicity of assessing technical competency) or if they'll tell me to model out a SPAC deal (pretty esoteric and non-standard). Anyone have experience with these types of roles?


Also yes, I know SPAC boom has been over for some time but this is probably the most well known buyside firm I've been able to get an interview with and it was only for this position
