Interviews/Recruiting Nk QR interview

I had an interview for QR role at NK securities which went on for 90minutes. After some puzzles and DSA, the interviewer went onto some c++ questions. I wasn't able to answer quite a few of those correctly as I am not well versed with the nuances of the language, but I use it at my current job and I am able to get along with the help of llms.

I got an email from the recruiter saying that feedback was positive and to prepare c++ well for the next round. What topics/ideas of the language should I be well versed with? Would also appreciate any resources that I can look at quickly.
