Got an interview - now the hard bit!

Just found out that I have got an interview with quite a large accountancy firm (60+ branches in the UK) yay! Without giving too much away the position is junior management level. I believe the interview will last for approximately 90 mins and will involve an in-depth discussion about my CV, some competency based questions and a test which I've been told I can't prepare for.

Has anyone any experience of this interview format? Any suggestions what the test may involve if I can't prepare for it? Any interview tips would be great as I've been a SAHM for a couple of years and my confidence isn't what it was.

TIA

cometency based questions - you need to prepare examples of when you have demontrated the kind of wider skills they are looking for in the job - if you have the job spec it should give you a good idea - and I find CAR helpful - context, action, - , result - practice telling the stories with someone - and remember that getting the interview means they think you can do the job - and I would guess have done a similar one in the past - good luck
