Don't go because anyone who thinks the word poop should be used at anytime is not interview material.

Now I'm all for sweaty, but I've never had a real job interview.
I guess just don't be an ass, but that's a given.

Don't say "Um" "Like" or grunt.

honesty? I'm all for honesty.. except in interviews. you need to lie lie lie, about ANYTHING to get the job.. most of the time they won't check into anything you tell them. they just want to see how good of a talker you are. LIE!!

Well, i actually took a few courses in college about resmues and interviews.
1.) be well groomed and dressed
2.) research the company your trying to get hired at so you can have a conversation about the company during your interview (aka: sounding like you have a brain and know what the hell they do)
3.) BE POSITIVE...smile...
4.) Have a well documented portfolio and a copy of your resume , if it applies, even if they already have a copy. It may be a person interviewing you who does not have a copy at hand.
5.) Wear underware, dont freeball-it that day.
6.) And ALWAYS follow up with a thank-you letter to the company within a week thanking them for the oppertunity of being interviewed for whatever b*&%hit position you may be trying to achieve.
7.) Call back in 1 1/2 weeks, after they have recieved your thankyou letter, with something new to say about the company like......."I see you have released this, or prouduced that, or what have you"
..........................It all worked real good for me, and good luck SUCKER!!
PS: If you get the job, buy lots of Vodka, you'll need it.

When you go to the company, try not to be a know-it-all, but know enough about the company(why would someone hire you if you know nothing about their company?)
Dont look TOO happy.. stepford wives just look creepy..
Dont slouch, drag your feet, look down, or anything.. Always maintain eye contact.
Also lying is good if you can pull it off. Don't say you went to harvard... Something like "Yeah, I help these handicap people out" and put a couple reference numbers of your friends.. it makes you look like you will work even if the pay isnt high(which generally gets u raises)
Again with lying.. Don't lie about education or work history. Use your lies for how happy you are to work for them, and how you would do anything at all to help someone out.
Most interviews have these kinds of questions:
Describe one time where you provided excellent customer service in a previous job.
What would you do if Customer X wanted to return an item outside of the store policy?
Why do you want to work for our company?
What do you think you have to offer our company?
Do you like Skittles?
Edit:
Also, if you actually do get sweaty when you are nervous, do this:
-Get a strong antiperspirant
-Wear an undershirt(if your armpits get sweaty, it will catch most of the moisture)
-Keep your hands exposed to the air(if your palms sweat)
-If you need to wipe ur face or ur palms get too sweaty, do it when they are not looking
