Unfortunately questions can be extremely varied depending on the company. Generally however my advice would be to make sure you know your basics. For technical-based questions you could be asked about the governing equations, RANS models and their applications and CFD workflows (how you would approach a certain simulation task for example). Make sure you read up on the company and current/past projects they have been involved with. Good luck!

One thing you want to make sure you absolutely do not do is claim you know a topic well when you might not. A good engineer knows what he/she doesn't know.
