Since you're only 15 I would just wear a nice pair of pants (not jeans..preferablly black pants) and kitten heels, a nice collared shirt or something professional looking.  Don't wear anything revealing, tight, low cut, etc.  Have your nails manicured (or at least trimmed to one lenght...do not wear bright colors).  Have your hair pulled back from your face in a bun or pony tail.  This will make it less easy to tug at your hair if you're nervous.  Normally for job interviews I suggest bringing a resume in a nice neat folder..but since this is your first job, you won't need to do that.  I would bring a list of 3 references (not family members.) typed.  Just remember to be yourself, smile politely, have proper grammer, do NOT chew gum and answer the questions they ask your honestly.  goodluck.

First of all say to yourself - I am good and I will do well. That extra boost of confidence will carry you far in the interview. Here are some specific steps to take.\n\n1) Prepare. Interview is a two way street. So, think about what questions to ask them. Analyze the company and the division you will be interviewing. You may want to search the Internet for some latest news about the company. Jot down some relevant questions about the company and your job. For example, "I read that the number of subscribers for your business seems to have jumped quite a bit in the recent quarter. How do you see the next few quarters?" or "I saw that your company acquired XYZ. What impact, if any, does it have on the position I am applying for?"\n2. Note down some major accomplishments of yours and weave them into three or four little 1-2 minute stories. For example, the time in a previous job where you demonstrated fast learning. At the appropriate time use these stories. Prepare this in such a way it has the following components - what was the problem, what was your solution, what was the result? Such stories emphasize your strengths with examples rather than simply saying "I am good at xyz". Also, think about one weakness of yours and learn to put a positive spin around it. For example, "I am generally shy but in the last job I made sure that I improved on it. I have invited....I will continue to improve here."\n3. Listen carefully. If possible, take notes on what people say during the interview. Write down their names, tieles, and email addresses so that you can send them thank you emails.\n4. Close the interview with one or two of your strengths. State how enthusiastic you are about the job and citing your strength say why you will be a great match. \n5. Smile and show energy and enthusiasm.\n6. Don't smoke or eat smelly foods (e.g. garlic) before the interview. Avoid alcoholic drinks if you go for lunch or dinner with your employers. Also avoid foods that will take over your mouth such as a huge sandwich.\n7. Wear conservative and clean outfits.\n8. Arrive 10 minutes before the interview\n9. Before you enter relax. If singing a song will make you do that, do so in your head. \n10. Tell yourself -- I am good and I am going to do well.\n\nGood luck.

Respond truthfully to any questions, written or oral.\nDon't bring it up yourself.\n\nOn the application, fill in any question about it with the facts. In oral interview, say "I'm glad you asked me that. I took care of that by (whatever you had to do such as fine, community service, counseling) and it has not been a problem since then."\n\nPrior Planning and Preparation Prevent P-Poor Performance. Prepare and rehearse for any question that might make you feel awkward, even "why do you want to work here" or "why did you leave your last job." Be honest but present yourself in a good light and avoid any blaming of others.

It's hard to say without knowing what kind of job and how you're going about it now. \n\n1. Don't bring your friends or little sister with you to interviews or filling out applications. \n\n2. Dress for success. This isn't time for fashion week; look at the way other employees are dressed and dress one step nicer. Or imagine grandma taking you to church.\n\n3. Have self-confidence in the interview. Try and eliminate the "ummm's" and "yeah's". You are smart and ready to work. Let the manager know it!\n\n4. BE ON TIME for the interview.

You may very well be asked the following (or facsilimiles thereof):\n\n1. How do you handle stress? (Tell them you like to volunteer...this is seen as your being a helpful, team-playing colleague.)\n2. Describe a stressful time at work and how you handled it. (Tell them that you opened a calm, meaningful dialogue about the situation. This will tell the H.R. person you are a clear thinker and a team-player).\n3. What is least appealing about your current workplace? (Do NOT say the low pay. The interviewer will think you are only at the interview for the chance to make "bigger bucks" and that you don't care about the company's mission).\n4. Tell me about a time when you were angered by your supervisor and how you handled it. (Do NOT say that you were never angered...the H.R. person will immediately eliminate you from the pool of applicants). \n\nYou will probably be asked quite a few "touchy" and uncomfortable questions by the interviewer. This is the way companies now weed out applicants...grace under fire. Your best bet...go into the interview with a calm, clear head and on the offensive! Make sure that the interviewer sees that you are a TEAM PLAYER...even if you aren't!

Have some one practice interview with you. You need to be comfortable talking about yourself. Also have question ready to ask them.

This is a great question that I was about to ask. Suggestions that I have tried include: \n1. Write a thank you note IMMEDIATELY after you return from the interview. If you had multiple interviewers (on a panel), make the letters unique.\n2. As one person said, ask when they expect to come to a decision.\n3. Make a follow up call if you have not heard anything within a week to ten days.\n4. DO NOT CALL MULTIPLE TIMES. This tends to annoy the hiring managers/analysts.\n5. Phrase your questions confidently. Try not to sound desperate.\n6. DO NOT ASK for the job during the interview or during follow up. Use phrases like: "Please inform me of the next step in the hiring process."\n7. Highlight points about yourself that you did not get to in the interview.\n8. KEEP APPLYING/INTERVIEWING for other jobs! Don't get too overconfident.\n9. Pace yourself. If you feel depressed about the whole situation, take a break but DON'T GIVE UP!\n\nDISCLAIMER: I have not received a job offer. These are suggestions that I have picked up along the way.

#1 show up about 15 minutes early...  too early appears desperate, late is unacceptable period!!!  Dress neat even if it isn't your style.  Cover up tattoos and piercings, as a lot of adults don't understand/appreciate them.  Act the way you think the interviewer would want you to be.  But also try to be yourself and act calm through it.  Good luck and congratulations because i am sure you will get the job!!!!

Dress as neatly as possible.  No need to look like you are attending a wedding or funeral (regrettably, a lot of people these days aren't aware these call for formal wear), but no jeans.  A suit is a good idea.  In the interview don't discuss how you and your homies hang out in the 'hood.  If music comes up, you adore some obscure classical composer, not gangsta rap.  Pick one who is obscure, though, so the interviewer won't catch you faking it:  "Oh, yes, Mozart did his best work in his fifties."  (Mozart died a month before his 37th birthday.)  Football over NASCAR.  Have an intelligent opinion ready for a question on some mildly controversial issue, some interviewers like to throw that out and see how you perform.  A major is sure to come up.  If you have one chosen, be prepared to explain why--something better than "Mommy picked it" or "I can help daddy's hardware store if I take accounting".

Take a walk and concentrate on how well you're going to do, how every answer will be crisp, informative and complete, how bubbly with excitement you're going to be (not how nervous it makes you). \n\nEmployers want people with energy, whom are attentive and listen to instruction carefully. Then they want answers in as few words as possible so as not to waste their time. Ask before expounding too much. They will ask you if they need more.\n\nTry to say nothing negative about previous employers, or blame anyone for anything. Focus on strengths and how happy working for this company will make you. Do research and find out their business and make comments on that. Their company reports and newsletter from the company president are at the library.\n\nGood luck.

Did they say "When are you avaliable to work?" late in the interview, because thats a good sign. The first question you listed is pretty good, I don't know about the second. Either way, Good Luck Bro! Hope it works out.

I've been for many interview before and interviewed before, and basically they just want to know if you would be good for the job they're offering. Whatever do you, don't just say what they want to hear, its so obvious and leaves a bad impression. Be honest and answer the questions positively, happily and confidently. You're allowed to be nervous, everyone is, and I can tell you now that the person interviewing you is more nervous than you are! Honest truth! They ask questions about your history, why do you want to be here, why did you leave there, what do you plan for your future, what are you good at, what do you like and enjoy doing. It varies from interviewer to interviewer. What is the most essential key, is having a good CV, that gets your foot in the door. First impressions always last - remember that. If needs be, get a graphic designer to set up your CV on CD in .pdf format, looks super professional!! Let your CV stand out from the crowd and you'll be a sure winner!  Good luck sweedie!

practice the types of questions that you think they will ask. Role play with a friend so that you have some practice. Most of all remember that they would not be interviewing you unless they didn't already believe that you are a good fit for the position. And SMILE!! It will tell them that you are happy to have the chance to interview and that you will bring a positive attitude to their company!\n\nGood Luck on your interview!!
