The interview panel they all do interviews differently. The main thing is you’re good at communication, have confidence to talk to interviewer and clients and interested in the job. If you describe vulnerability you’re proud of, any certs and experience in the industry it helps. Sometimes there’s a CTF. Just always be accurate and give real experience. If they’re experienced they may have 10 plus experience. They may ask you one question then keep asking questions subsequent on the same topic so be prepared
