Lower MM PE shop intern interview prep

Hello, I am a sophomore at a non-target in a large city, I got an opportunity to interview as an intern for a lower end MM PE shop and I was wondering what I should be preparing for? I have no other work experience in finance so I've been self-studying online, applying for internships, and cold emailing and trying to network within the city I'm located in.
