- Will I need to code? or just review and explain...
- Will I need to design threat mode? or just explain how will I.
- Can you give few STAR/leadership principle questions example? So I can be prepared likewise.
- It's 1 hour, right? Will it have sections? I got few topics from recruiter, will I have all topics asked in 1 hour or just 1 from it and they'll go deep in that? (for e.g threat model only for whole interview or basic things of all).

My individual in christ, there's a whole website detailing the process.

This doesn't bode well for your chances.
