How do I prep for OnCycle

Incoming IB analyst at a group that historically places well during PE recruiting. I come from a total non target and I don't know how to approach prep - what do interview questions look like how do I prep and what can I do to know what I need to know?

From your post history you're a sophomore at a non-target who doesn't have an offer yet for junior SA. I'm not sure what help you can give me?
