So excited! First interview!

I think the best piece of advice I have received is to stand by your policies etc. You may be tempted (I know I was) to lower your price, change your hours or offer something you don't want to, to land that client. There will be other ones so don't psych yourself up too much by putting too much weight on this one interview. After all, you may decide you don't want them.

The second thing is to do a careful phone interview. Save yourself a lot of time and energy weeding out the ones that aren't a fit policy wise. I looked at the first interviews as my "practice interviews" and this took a lot of the pressure off.
