Descriptive and very interactive. You need to be good at speaking clearly and coherently. The interviewer wants to see your level of intelligence and how your previous experience will help in your role. Also you need to do your research about the role, before attending the interview - watch YouTube videos to see different scenarios on the job and listen to calls as well.
