Show off as much cleavage as possible. Dress as normally boring as possible for most jobs, unless you're going to work in a club. Dress clothes are the best bet, and you don't need to wear a full suit most of the time. Depends on if you're wanting to work in an office or in the usual commercial services. Also depends on how high end the place is. Working in the Make-Up counter at Macy's or working the floor at Nordstroms means you will need to dress up a lot. Daily at that.
Everyone's nervous about interviews and even the interviewer is nervous at times as well. Eat a good breakfast before going to any. Low blood sugar and stuff can make you feel even worse than normal.
Not always applicable, but if you can turn it into more of a conversation then they'll probably feel more comfortable with you as the interview progresses.
Never complain about work, past employment, or school. If so, turn it around into a positive. "My chemistry teacher really piled on the work last semester, but I learned sooo much about chemistry that it really changed my outlook on life", or something like that.
No harsh language. No t-shirt and jeans. (Unless you're working in construction.)
Whatever you do, don't eat anything messy between interviews. My dad had a fun story about spilling a ton of grease all over his pants before an interview. That probably wasn't fun. xp
Edit: Completely forgot job suggestions!
Government work is usually available. There may be elections this summer, so at the least you could do campaign work calling people or work at the ballots. That's usually volunteer work for free, but if you want a future job employers love volunteer and past experience.
If you have a large enough wardrobe to dress very nicely almost daily and you can easily strike up conversation with strangers, then retail's a possible choice. The nicer you can dress, the higher end the store you can apply for.
I can't think of too many 'great' jobs though. There's always Wal*Mart, unfortunately. :
If you can do community work like volunteering at a homeless shelter or something, then employers like that too. Colleges too, if you want to get in to nice one....Sorta...Well... It's complicated. I could explain it, but basically the system does lie a lot in what colleges are looking for. sad
