You'll probably imagine the worst possible scenarios in your head until you get to the actual interview. It will not be as bad as you think.

There was actually some thread around here about someone who, much like you, was dreading an interview, and they said it wasn't nearly as bad as they thought. They were really nervous, yes, but as they got there, it got a little better and went smoothly.

When I had my interview for the job I have now, my face was red and my heart was swollen with anxiety, but I pulled it off. I had to read something aloud and if I stuttered or anything, I'd probably get a bad 'grade'. I read it smoothly, knowing that I'm a good reader and that I'd feel like crap if I failed to read it properly.

A couple of minutes after I had the interview, I was told I got the job and would start on Monday. A day to be proud of.
