The arbitrator is likely to ask about the nature of the case, the parties, and possibly prospective witnesses. That is so she can determine whether she has any potential conflicts of interest. Most arbitrators attempt to disclose even remote matters, so that the parties will have the utmost confidence in them. Either party can decline to use an arbitrator after the disclosures are made – for any reason at all. The reason does not have to be disclosed to the arbitrator or the other side. In that case both parties will have to mutually agree upon a new arbitrator.
