My reason for joining advisory back in the day was that I wanted to roll up my sleeves along side my clients and help them solve real time issues.

Recruiter and D1 hit it on the head - there will be lots of behavioral questions (how you’ve dealt with deadline challenges, difficult coworkers or clients, tricky accounting, etc.) and definitely have a good narrative about why advisory (usually helps to work in something about how you want to provide more value to clients, if you’re in audit - you can always throw in how at the end of the day, clients usually view you as compliance).
