Thanks OP for making this thread, this will definitely help me improve my odds at interviews. So many of my jobs have come from informal interviews and networking that I've actually never had a real interview, so to say I'm rusty is an understating.

Also more generally I think a big thing is don't sweat too much of the small stuff, a lot of us here probably have half the OP down because we are normal human beings who interact with people everyday, so it would be worth your time to identify your weaknesses and start there. Kinda like all that pick up artist crap, if you are looking to see if the interviewers pupils dialate as a sign they like you, you probably need to reevaluate yourself.

There are a lot of natural behaviors that are inappropriate for an interview setting so I don't think it's wise to just chill out and hope for the best. When your career is on the line it's a good time to sweat the small stuff.
