Mega fund summer analyst intern interview need help

Tomorrow I have first round phone interview with a mega fund think (KKR, BX, Apollo) for their leveraged credit SA intern position. This will be my first interview with a PE firm and am looking for general advice on how to prepare. What should I for sure have down? What are they looking for in these first round screenings? Is the LBO portion of BIWS Guide enough? All advice is welcomed. Thank you all in advance.

 

I had a first round for the same program. Was grilled on the different kinds of credit across a capital structure and maintenance/incurrence covenant multiples. Would also practice doing a paper LBO with multiple tranches as they WILL ask you to do one
