My fiancée is a first-time children's book author. What should she expect from her first meeting with the publisher and editors? Any advice?

They've already seen some samples of her unpublished work and are interested in interviewing her before signing any contract. The meeting is to be a panel-style interview (Skype call) with a few editors and a head publisher/director-type. How can she prepare for this? What expectations might they have of new authors?
