Energy Trading - Interview tomorrow with a boutique

I have an interview tomorrow with a boutique energy trading shop as an entry level trader. I'm coming from consulting and have very little idea of what to expect from this process. Any insight on what types of questions may be asked, best practices for this type of interview, etc. would be appreciated.

Hi Monty... I'm guessing you are the energy trading guru around here. Let me know what info would help and I'll be glad to elaborate. Pardon my ignorance, but I just kind of stumbled into this opportunity through some networking. I'm rather unfamiliar with the space in general, which leads me to believe I won't get the job, but I'd like to at least give it a shot.
