The question is way too broad. Narrow it down to

   location (city), 
   role, 
   years of experience (junior?, senior?, lead?), 
   industry (IT, Finance, Industry), 
   employer (big, small, startup)

I wanted to keep it broader, but narrowing it down to my specific case:

- location: remote companies with different "original" location (Germany (remote), Barcelona, London)

- role: Software Engineer (full-stack roles, mid-level)

- years: 1.5

- industry: again, all over the place, from Fintech to EdTech

- employer: mostly companies with <200, some startups

For the two interviews that I had this year in EU (1 Fintech, 1 health tech, mid-level, remote, startups), I didn't prepare much other than looking what the company was doing, considering how I'd fit in there and got 2 offers.

I'd recommend to brush up the fundamentals - not in terms of knowing all the search algorithms out there, but to have a solid understanding of the bulding blocks of the web, stuff like CAP theorem etc.

Being honest about what you don't know also seems right.
