How to prep for interview as engineer?

Hello,

I am an engineer trying to make a career transition into finance. I have been working as one for the past couple of years and decided to write the CFA level 1 exam, and passed it! I recently got a call for an interview and was wondering if there was any advice on how to prepare for the interview? I am a little nervous as this is my first finance interview and I am not quite sure what to expect.

Thanks
