Underwriting Analyst vs. Acquisition Analyst

Hello,

I have an interview coming up for an underwriting analyst position and want to know what I am getting myself into.

The description states that the acquisitions team is looking for a buy-side analyst, but the title being different I wanted to ask. Are these positions the same? Will I have upwards mobility in the firm?

Also, are holdings companies with AUM the same thing as REPE?
