If you Google this, you should be able to get sample questions that will be asked. Here's something from one site --

About yourself: your study, work experience and skills

Think of a time when you made a mistake. What did you do? What was the result? What did you learn from this experience? (Lloyds TSB)
Tell me about a time when you have dealt with a difficult situation/a difficult customer at work (Lloyds TSB)
Tell me about a time when you worked in a team. How did you delegate what each person had to do? (Lloyds TSB)
Describe a time at school when you showed leadership/took control of a situation (Barclays)
Describe a time at work when you coped with a difficult problem (Barclays)
Tell me about a time where you had to collaborate with others towards success. How did you contribute? What was your role? What problems did you encounter? What would you do differently if you had to do this again? What did you learn? (Royal Bank of Scotland)
Where do you see yourself in five to ten years? (HSBC)
