Yay! Congratulations and good luck! Some tips I've heard/read from hiring professionals:
* Dress how you see the sales people dress plus one.
* Be nice to EVERYONE, and be the ultimate professional from the time you walk in the door. Remember - you may be interviewing with the manager (or whoever it is), but you don't know who will be evaluating you or will be part of the ultimate hiring decision.
* Try not to be nervous. The interviewer is a person, too, and has objectives for what they are trying to accomplish. Think of those and try to fill those. If you are a good fit for the position, you are doing her a service. The absolute worst outcome is that you are not offered a job. No real risk here.
* Smile.
* Breathe.
* Take a pause to consider your answer before you give it. (I can't do that one, though I've tried. But it is consistent advice.)
Let us know how it goes!
