There are very many questions that could be asked of you, but some of the most common ones, either directly or variants thereof:

1. What are your greatest strengths?

2. What are your greatest weaknesses?

3. Where do you see yourself working/what do you see yourself doing in "x" months or years?

4. What's one job or school accomplishment you're most proud of?

5. What's one decision in your life you regret the most?

6. What do you in particular have to offer?

Good luck! Remember, number 2 and number 5 are not intended to be very personal. They are a chance for you talk about positive excesses or anomalies about you (you work too hard, you're very loyal, very careful, or whatever applies to you that sounds good).
