I think keeping somewhat of an eye on the tax news and IR's website (e.g. recent policy blogs) is good to answer any technical questions and get a feel for tax. But the most important part is learning how to convey who you are and what you can bring to the job in a concise way. For example, what is your workstyle, how do you manage your time, how are you working with others.
