What to expect in a Skype interview with POI?

[maru58]

When I already put everything I had in my application? What could they possibly ask me at this point? I had made it very clear on my application why I chose the program, research interests, career choice, accomplishments, etc. This skype interview is supposed to make decision about funding but I'm not sure what to prepare? Thanks.

I think a lot of it is just being able to have a conversation with the applicants, I have only had one in person and have a Skype next Monday, the in person was an hour of just conversation around many topics and ideas.
