Suit up, no exceptions!
When you meet the interview, shake their hand and say "Good Afternoon" no "Hey/Hello" etc.
Lie through your teeth if you need to, everybody does it :p

How old are you btw?

E: Same age as me and i've had 6 interviews, need to stop getting bored of jobs :p

BEST OF LUCK!
 
just be polite thx v much for your time etc etc if your not sure of anything dont waffle be honest and look smart

dont make jokes dont be to far one way or the other be middle of the roadish

emphasise your good points dont highlight any bad ones.

dont ask questions about time off and holidays to much ..

get a little background knowledge of the company

dont be late pretty much all i can think of off hand.
 
I think the most important things are to make yourself presentable - first impressions are the most important, and make sure you come across as being confident, helpful, approachable, and friendly. There's nothing more important than confidence I don't think, just don't overdo it.
 
Wear a suit.

When kissing the interviewer, always tilt your head at a 45 degree angle. This opens up the neck area and suggests that you are there for the taking, submissive yet ready.

Ask interesting questions and provide interesting but factually accurate responses. Be alert and confident but don't be cocky. Maintain eye contact but don't stare. Be polite and maintain your composure even during the trickier questions.

Good luck.
