I'm going on a job interview for my dream job on Friday and I'm so nervous. What are things I should keep in mind and/or what advice can you girls give me?

~Be prepared. Research the company, know the basics about the job you are applying for.
~Have at least 3 intelligent questions to ask.
~I prepared the top ten reasons to hire me, and my now boss was impressed with that and the things i brought with me to the interview. I brought letters of rec, resume, my accomplishments, top ten reasons to hire me, examples of the work i had done at other past experiences, etc etc.
~be prepared to say what you want to make, and be realistic about it
Be confident in yourself! That will show more than anything else

Oh and make sure you get a good night's sleep before the interview day.
Interviewers want to see what kind of person they are hiring and if they're right for the job, so just be yourself.
good luck!

1st you should think of it as more of a chance to show them why u are the perfect person, if u've read the company website, done a bit of research and know the post and what they want you to do, then that side is covered-if it's relevant you could think about 1 or 2 ways you'd improve anything, but don't seem like you want to come in and change too much, just so they see u are proactive...which you obviously are, as u've taken the initiative to post this question!!
Now when it comes to YOU...make sure you've tried your outfit on in advance, someone once saiid to me you dress for the next role you want, so think about the role AFTER the one you are interviewing for, think smart manager, sexy but professional...u know confident, if u have good legs and you usually wara a siut, what about a classy pencil skirt & shirt? also think about hair & the style you want to project/how it looks all together
On the day, get up fairly early, have a small meal, tea/coffee or whatever, just pamper yourself, make sure YOU feel good-it will come accross...do your make up (if you wear any usually), and take some time to chill and IMAGINE yourself doing really well in the interview
i usually get to the place early and scope it out, hang around and see how staff interact, if u can catch any conversations which will help, these are all the things they DON'T put on their website etc,
Lastly, remember especially in a recession, they can pick nearly whoever they want and they want YOU...that's why they've called YOU up for an interview...
i have a good feeling for you hun
