Have a phone interview with Amazon for a sr technical program manager. Does anyone have advice or a heads up for what I’m walking into?

I am sure this has been asked a million times before but have a Microsoft Program Manager interview coming up. Responsibilities align really well so as far as project story telling and background I am confident. The design questions that I am reading about is what is throwing me off guard. Any tips? Do I just be myself? Do I prepare? Any input would be greatly appreciated.
This is a dream job that I want really bad so the nerves are through the roof!
