This is an interesting question, but you should start by first listing what you expect a "bioinformatics analyst" to be able to do and tailor the questions to do this. The way you ask the question now you will either get either the very general "does the candidate know python at all?" questions or the overly specific "does the candidate know how to work with this specific bioinformatics question?" ones. Neither of which are what you want, I would believe.

Maybe some googling should help you with common interview question. Data structures, file parsing and OOP.

No, just querystring leftovers that give away details.

How do you read a csv file in python? (hint: you should at least know pandas or the csv module)

With every interview preparation is essential - try to figure out what type of approaches they use - like it or not that's often what they ask about - somebody into OOP programming will ask that - someone into functional programming style will enjoy nice functional solutions
