An informal interview will be a chat over a coffee/tea. Though it wont be like a formal interview, you should take it just as seriously and prepare all the answers they are likely to ask. They are likely to ask all the questions they'd ask in a formal interview, but in an informal relaxed manner, with no formalities. They could base a decision just on an informal interview; that is what my supervisor did. So best of luck x
