Conduct yourself professionally.

Be confident: Focus on why you honestly believe you would be good at this particular job. Make a list of reasons beforehand. If you have confidence in yourself, you are more likely to convince the employer of your ability.

Be up-beat: A positive attitude  will show the interviewer you are a can-do person.

Be likeable: We all want to hire and work with people we like.

Be informed: Know about the company and the business before you go to the interview. Know what they expect you to do for the company.

Ask intelligent questions: There is always more to the job than what can be said in an ad. As you find out more about the job, you may discover job functions for which you are more qualities and you can direct your focus on them.

Be open to training: If the employer is willing to train you for the job, demonstrate enthusiasm about learning new things and a willingness to put extra time and efforts into training. If you are a quick study, now is the time to mention it.

Make the interview a starting point. If the job is not something you are qualified to do, ask to leave your resume with the company or ask if there are similar opportunities at a lower level. If you appear enthusiastic, intelligent and committed, your intervene is more likely to offer suggestion to help you break the field.
