Just in general I would say get your resume critiqued at school by the career center.

Some tips for your interview:
1. Research the company beforehand. If it's a large one they will definately test your knowledge of the company.
2. Be optimistic. During my first interview I was asked how I would deal with dilemas and I was told later words my optimism was liked a lot by the interviewers. I said something along the lines of that I like challenges.
3. Firm handshakes although I would check if your palms are sweaty.
4. Make good eye contact
5. Along with researching the company you may want to see the culture of it some prefer formal attire some semi-formal. Overall though with women theres more leverage with clothes than men.
6. Get there early. Punctuality is very important on creating a good impression.
