They can't ask you any personal questions, like if your married or have children, these are discriminatory and have no bearing on your work performance.
Try to find out if it is a target selection interview, where they will ask for a specific example to a question. You will need to give them a situation, task, action and response. Try to think of examples of when you have been in certain situations, how you handled it, what you did, and what the outcome was/benefit for the business. If the interview will go for over an hour then I would suggest it will be in this format. If it is in this format, the questions will be along the lines of "can you give me an example of when you have missed your monthly plan, what did you do to rectify it?"
Even if the interview isn't as structured as a behavioural one, it is a good idea to respond to their questions by giving examples of when you have been in similar situations. That way you can give them an idea of your experience and how you handle certain situations.
I agree, seek.com.au has great interview guides and sample questions.
I have interviewed so many candidates when i was in management, and in addition to the answers, it pays to make sure you present well, keep eye contact, and be confident without being arrogant.
Good luck, hope it all goes well.
