One last thing, another person can't really tell if you are nervous or scared inside just by looking at you unless you fail to smile at all, have a wide, bug eyes look and act stiffly with your body. So remember to at least smile. Smiling sends a message that a person is a friendly approachable sort and that is a good impression and good regarding how you will be with their customers. And here is a link from Ehow on tips for before and during interview.

Now when dressing for the interview. Leave your watch at home or put it in your purse. Biggest mistake people make in an interview is constantly looking at their watch. Next dress appropriately. Proper dress would be a nice pair of slacks or skirt with a blouse or polo shirt. NO flip flops or tennis shoes. A clean and polished pair of flats or low heels is appropriate. Your hair should be however you would normally wear it for work and just a touch of makeup such as lip gloss and lite eye liner.
Try to remember how you answered the questions on the assessment test for they are likely to ask them again. Wait for the interviewer to finish the question before you answer do not anticipate the question. If you're not sure what they are asking in the question ask for clarification.
One question always asked by most interviewers is where do you see yourself with us in 5 years. This question can be expected if you are applying for one of their full time positions.
For companies like Wal-Mart full time employees are the ones that are most likely going to be looked at to become department manages, assistant store managers and eventually store managers. If this is what you want then have a good answer ready.
