Anyway, I've interviewed people for jobs before. Here's what I'd suggest:

-Dress well. This doesn't necessarily mean a suit and tie, but demonstrate that the interview is something you consider a special event where you want to look nice and make a good impression.

-Don't be afraid to talk yourself up. If you came up with a creative solution to a problem that nobody else did, talk about it. If you took the initiative to bring up company problems to the management, led other people on a project, etc., speak up! Pretty much everyone has 4 years of college and some past experience in a similar field, so mention some things that make you stand out even if it means being somewhat immodest.

-However, don't overdo it and don't bullshit. If you were a cashier, don't say something like "I played a crucial role in customer satisfaction and financial management of the company". You'll just get laughed at. And don't say you're qualified for a given job if you aren't. Even if you're lucky enough to get a stupid interviewer who doesn't know how to verify your credentials and you get hired, it won't be long before you're looking for another job.

-Welshbyte mentioned being nervous. While it's certainly okay to be open and expressive and show some degree of nervousness (you're human and this is a job interview after all!), try not to spaz out, especially if the job in question involves some stress. I interviewed one woman for a receptionist position who was polite and fairly well qualified, but very very nervous. I figured that if she couldn't handle a fairly lax job interview, she'd probably break down in tears and take the next 3 days off if she ever took a call from an angry customer who bitched her out. A similarly qualified but thicker skinned person got that job.
