An interview is a "two-way street." Prepare what questions to ask during the interview. Your questions allow the hiring manager to evaluate your professionalism and personal needs. Insightful questions help both of you determine if your relationship will be mutually rewarding. The better you understand the opportunity/company, the more you will be able to communicate your interest in the position.

Present your best to the interviewer. Always wear proper attire. Nice greeting with a firm handshake and an enthusiastic smile.
