The interview was online and lasted for about an hour with two interviewers. They asked me questions about the company and it was mostly a competency-based interview where I talked about my past experiences. It went pretty well, except for one point where they repeated a question to make sure they understood what I meant. I'd suggest looking into the company, like reading news about them. Also, think about your past projects and experiences.
