i worked at louis dreyfus and am starting with macquarie, but know a few trading folks in houston.
If its in houston, it will vary by the person interviewing you - but you should have good idea of why energy/commodities (and which products- do you see yourself in power, gas, crude, ngls - what do you like and why, whats driving pricing right now), a demonstrable passion for trading in general, and the more you can learn about the shop and whose doing what (linkedin is helpful for this), the better. Don't fake what you dont know and realize that what you read in the paper is often completely disconnected to whats really going on - treat the interviews as an opportunity to learn.
Houston is great for energy trading - the whole physical biz is really down here and it gives you an edge in fundamentals knowledge almost regardless of the product.
However, many shops make you earn your spot and it might be a battle to get on a desk (as opposed to research, risk, etc), so if you are one of the lucky few to have multiple offers, i'd definitely try to get a feel for placement, as not everyone has been fortunate.
Above info is solid and spot on.
Your interviewers will want to see a real passion for energy specifically, or at the very least, it will absolutly give you an edge over your competition.
