$$$ platform interview case study coming up soon- tips for preparation

Hello, I am a ER guy in APAC region, and I have 3 interviews prepared for the case study portion in the next weeks.


Can someone please tell me how best to prepare? I obviously have talked to colleagues who transitioned to buyside but I want to start preparing cause I want to full-on prepare. 


I bought the WSO's hedge fund training course but I feel like most of the contents are very basic and do not equip me any more further. I myself cover stocks and am a chartered financial analyst.


The funds will be event driven mostly, and I lack knowledge on the paired trades and any trade related stuff. where do I get these knowledge? Thanks.
