I got my first (skype) interview! Any advice?

Next week I have my first Skype interview for a faculty position! It’s a 30 min interview for a STEM department at a R1. Any advice? What kind of questions might I be asked? Are there ways I should prepare or just wing it and answer honesty?

* If possible, use a wired connection.
* Test your audio & video settings. Find out what sort of ambient lighting & noise might distract your interviewees.
* Frame your viewable area so that you're presenting the most professionally appropriate appearance you can.
* Put googly eyes or something near the camera so that you're looking at it (and your interviewees will feel like you're looking at them rather than at your screen).
* Use the wall behind and the border around your screen to hang easily accessible notes so you can refer to important ideas/questions.
