Hi Sarviin,
thanks for the question regarding the interviews.
In the interviews you will do a case that allows you to discuss a specific topic with the interviewer and derive a solution for a specific topic. Here the specific question with some background will be given by the interviewer. You should then define a structure and lead towards a solution. This is your responsibility including asking questions in case you need help or further information. You are in the lead. We will help you though and my guidance is as well - let us help you and listen to what we tell you.
Best regards
