First Ever Finance Interview

This weekend I have my first ever finance interview (as my username suggests lol), its for a financial analyst internship at IBM for the summer...

What should I expect? I know theres no sure way of knowing, but is it more likely to be compotency based or personal stuff?

Im trying to prepare general answers because I think I will be nervous on Saturday, and pointers would be great, thanks

PS I should suit up for this, right?
