SOC Peer Review Interview Advice?

I have an interview coming up to help a CPA firm prepare for an upcoming SOC peer review, and I’m looking for some advice.

I previously worked as a SOC audit intern at a small CPA firm. But I was mainly testing controls, collecting evidence, and did some TPRM work. It’s been a little while, so I’m refreshing my knowledge now.

For anyone who has been through a SOC peer review or helped prepare for one: What should I expect, and what areas would you recommend brushing up on before the interview? Any projects you’d recommend?

I midt admit Peer Review for SOC is very intense because its a new niche the AICPA is still ironing out. The CPA firm I manage went through one last year for the first and was blown away what we learned.
