Search Fund Interview Advice

Hello, I am a third-year student studying finance and real estate. I want to eventually land up in a high finance role like IB or PE and as a first step towards reaching that goal, I have started finding and applying to search funds. Have just been invited to an interview at an LLM Private Equity/Search fund. Before the interview, they asked me to complete an industry appraisal and make a list of a few companies that would be a good fit for acquisition and some that would be a bad fit given the company's search criteria. I was wondering if in the interview they would only ask me follow up questions about my research and ask me to justify my responses or can there be a technical component also? And any tips on how to prepare for it!
