Is this your first job? After working in crappy places like markets and fast food resteraunts, I'm never looking back and only aiming high.
If you want to get this crappy job, it's totally easy. Just wear cool clothes, smell good, talk confidently. They ask you what previous experience you have, and what qualifications (lol) so just make up some crap, and smile and look happy and make the interviewer feel good.

Don't wear a colorful tie. Keep your eyes on the guy/gal interviewing you and ask how much does the job paid (seriously, is an honest and legit question) Ask many questions relevant to the job. And don't forget to shake the person's hand after the interview. And above all....Best of Luck!

And they also ask you what you're planning on doing with your money, so say 'college' or something.

If you don't nail this interview in the face, then you need to overlook your life...

Question they seem to love that I always hate is "what are your weaknesses." I usually say something corny like "sometimes I take my job too seriously" or something along those lines.
And this is obvious but don't be late.. they really hate that. If anything I'd go a little early if I were you.

They also hate it when you accidenally cut into boxes of magazines with a razor to open it and slice up all the magazines in the process.

Be aware of cheesy questions like, "Why do you want to work here?" and "What is your greatest weakness?" If they ask the latter one, think of something that isn't really a weakness...or spin it so it's not so bad >.<
