OP - do you have a description of the posting? People may be able to give some general advice based on that.
Just going on the title alone - I would assume you may get some investment and portfolio type questions. Maybe how would you start building out a portfolio? (re: determine asset allocation to various asset classes) and things you need to consider while doing so (re: the pension's risk and return objectives). Since the group title also includes "Interest Rate Risk" - it likely means they also do interest rate hedging - either using bonds or swaps.
If you find their 10K, you can look under the pensions section to see if they show their current asset allocation.
Review all the Disney movies and be ready to quote, on the spot, any line from the any one of them made in the past 20 years... think Lion King, Hercules, Emperor's New Groove etc. Asante sana, squash banana!! : ) good luck though
