If you want to get the job, prepare for the interview.
Learn all you can about the company where you are seeking employment. You can make a better impression if you are familiar with the company’s plans and operations.

The way you dress is also very important. Choose clothing in which you’ll be comfortable. Be neat. Your shoes should be well-cleaned and shined. If you are a woman try to be moderate in make-up and jewelry.
