Is your head up? Do you walk in confidence? And, are you the person that looks like they are prepared? The second thing will be the way you shake their hand. Make sure that you've got the right grip. Practice it, work on it with several different people. The next thing they're going to look at is when you're sitting, how you carry yourself and how attentive you are to the interviewer? Some tips, if the interviewer is talking, lean forward if you're sitting.

Take notes if you have to because one of the things you may want to do at the end of the interview when they say "do you have any questions," that's your time to look over your list and get anything clarified.
