Biotech Business Analyst Interview (help)

I have an upcoming phone interview for a business analyst position in the biotech industry, I'm trying to figure how to prepare for it. I have a PhD but not an MBA; I have some experience in working with a startup (marketing/outreach related). I love science and the biotech industry and really want to transition into an analyst/consulting role, has anyone had experience with these positions and what do interviewers usually look out for in the first phone interview?
