Nine times out of ten,the employment recruiter will ask questions regarding the job you're applying for such as how you would handle certain situations to see how you think. This person wants to make sure they hire the right person for the money they're paying and that this person can also put some coin into the boss's pocket as well.
Just make sure you know your job. Good luck.

Almost anything goes. The most likely first question is, "Tell me a little bit about yourself." After that, most questions will be based on what you say there.

Other common popular questions include, "Tell me about your greatest weakness, and what you're doing to improve in that area." Or, "Is it ever OK to "break the rules" to get something done? Justify your answer or give me an example."

My personal favorite is, "Why should I hire YOU instead of the last person we just interviewed?" (A good answer to that question is along the lines of, "Well, since I wasn't in on their interview I can't compare myself to them, but here's what I CAN do for your company...")
