Getting Hints on Interviews

When someone from HR contacts you for an interview, usually they will end it with "please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions." I was wondering if it's ok to ask the HR representative if the interview will be quantative/technical in nature or if it will be qualitative/"fit"? Or will asking this question make me look bad in the eyes of the recruiter? Thanks!

I wouldn't go to HR.  I would ask one of your other contacts at the firm instead.  But if you must go to HR, ask in a very general manner.
