FI Sales Interview

Have an interview for a job in Fixed Income Sales. The role is selling short term fixed income (govi, agency, corp, certain tax exempts) to institutional clients. What kind of questions can I expect?

Am I looking at general questions like what is 30 day LIBOR, 1 year swap, short mmd scale? Or will it be what is my current role and how does it fit into this role?? Quick background, currently work as a sales trader on a desk that covers ultra high net worth clients who trade very tactical and high level.

Any insight would be greatly apprecited.

Thank you.
