First Job Interview

[Jolt]

I got my very first job interview in about 3 and half hours.
Strangely enough, while I'm not very nervous (I have a quite calm demeanour), I'm more nervous than I have ever been for my exams (Which I suppose isn't very hard). I suppose what aggravates my nervousness is the fact that my situation here in Lisbon (And particularly of my entire family overall) is very bad. This has forced me to try and get a part-time job I was already planning on, since last year.

From what I've heard, job interviews are tricky business, and having experience being interviewed really helps.
I was wondering what helpful tips can anyone give me so I won't do or say anything I'm not supposed to do.

In any case, the job interview is to work in my College's Student Council where we do college-related tasks (Photocopies, scanning, etc, etc.) the students need. I shall be working in the post-labour period, which would go from 5 PM to 8 PM.

Tips? Advice? Death threats? Marriage proposals?

Watch Spud's interview scene from Trainspotting, and do the exact opposite.

Be confident. Ask a few questions. Demonstrate knowledge of the skills you would need. You need to show initiative.

If you handed in a resume (CV), prepare to either explain it or to have it quickly glanced at and then thrown away.

Sales Manager is a Brit, used to work for British Telecom, something high up, he recruited people. Best way to tell if someone can handle it is to only check their CV for their name and then leave it.

Stay calm, answer clearly and without uming or ahing. If needed, take a few seconds to prepare your answer instead of saying um or ah.

Some people are naturally good or bad, you'll find out. Apparently I'm good, so I'm not going to be much help.

Eye contact and fixed blades.

If it's of any help, the person I'm thinking is going to interview me looks a lot like Ingrid Betancourt. :P

EDIT: Yeah, I handed a resume, and I suppose I'm ready to explain myself.

Cut your hair, get a good suit. Yes that's silly but do it anyway. Never ask what they are looking for, you already know what the job is about, you should, you must. That's all really

Also be a gentleman and be a MAN. They don't want a pushover loser they want someone who will work for them and take initiative.

Cut your hair, get a good suit.

Don't smoke right before you enter the interview, make sure you look clean and shaved.
