How do you prep for introductory/behavioral interviews?

I've got a couple of first round phone calls with hiring managers coming up and want to make sure I have all my bases covered.

Nearly a year in on a shrinking SDR team.
I am finding it increasingly unlikely that I'll be able to get off this team over to MM AE until the empty seats have been filled and brought up to speed.
At this point a move sideways into an AE role elsewhere is looking better and better.

Should I be patient or just take the leap?
Any tips on best positioning that in an interview?

I recently interviewed for a AE role with an international company Home Office-Dubai, HR in NYC I interviewed with the recruiter & hiring manager at the same time; interview went well. I sent thank you notes and received a response saying they would let me know In a couple of days. I noticed they reposted the job and was bummed, but out of nowhere I received a email saying they are working on something on the backend and would have a answer for me soon! That was 2 wks ago not sure what to think
