Among other questions, you will be asked, "Why do you want to work here" or "Why do you want position X at our company".

You need to know all about the company, all about the position, and be able to answer that in two minutes or less, speaking slowly, but not sounding rehearsed. And your response needs to have more to it than "My degree is in X, and this job positing is for X, and I need a job, and you guys are Nike which is cool..." You need to sound like after considering numerous internship opportunities, you think that Nike, specifically, is a good fit for your skillset and your future plans to develop your career, because of numerous good reasons specific to Nike and this job.

Read Shoe Dog. Phil Knight's book pretty much explains the culture around Nike and what he expected out of employees.

Definitely make sure you know the job description, in terms of tasks and responsibilities, as well as why you want the position. Know what department you would be working in. Maybe recent news on Nike that you found interesting.

Work on your spelling. It's preparation.

On a more serious note, we need to know what type of position this is to give you a decent answer. So please elaborate on the position and your background.
