Do your homework about the company and the person/people you will be meeting with. Understand their market presence, product launches, press releases, etc. Most importantly is to stay calm and not be nervous about the interview. Try to think of it as a high level meeting where you get to know them and vice versa. Prepare intelligent questions you can the interviewer during the meeting. Make sure you are dressed professionaly even if they have a casual environment. Bring extra copies of your resume and make sure you can back up everything you have written in the CV. Never give 1 word answers. Make sure to give detailed answers to all their questions. Overall, just have fun with it.

I think the best advice is to check out some information about the company your applying for. The mission and vision is what you should know. Aside from that, think about the best thing that you can offer to their company. That is the common question of an interviewer. Do your best to offer your good qualities.
