REPE to Growth Equity / Buyout Preparation

Hi all, I'm currently an REPE associate at a recognizable alternative assets firm (KKR/Apollo/TPG), but I've recently realized that I find corporate investing much more interesting than asset investing. Outside of the standard preparation guides, how can I best prepare for growth equity / buyout interviews? Unlike for public market roles where stock pitch writeups can easily be found, I'm not able to get my hands on many growth equity / buyout memos. Any help would be appreciated.
