at least it's in the morning so it'll be out of the way!!...mind you...3 sleepless nights and you'll be as calm as anything- you'll have run out of adrenaline!!!
Good luck!

My interview tip is to think of the things you've accomplished previously that are applicable to the new role, and find a way to work them into your answers. That way, even if they don't ask for you to describe a situation when you did X, you're still telling them about it. "For example, my experience in doing X shows that I..." Just don't completely derail on the questions in order to do so.
Whatever you do - do NOT leave the interview without asking these 3 questions...
usually best at the end when they ask....
a - What are the qualities that you are looking for in the person to do this job ? [gives you a chance to tell them how good you are at any you have missed]
b - Is there anything else you want to know about me? [gives them a chance to ask any more, that might not be on their list.....and another chance for you to tick more boxes]
c - say 'That's great, this is just the role I am looking for, thank you so much for interviewing me, what is the next step?' [Gives them a chance to tell you when you will hear or if there will be a next stage etc so that you aren't left worrying and you can then chase it once the date of the next step goes].
Honestly, when I did this last time [as ordered by my recruitment expert on a course I had just attended]; we got through all the niggles in Qa, talked through some of their questions in Qb and they gave me an idea so that I knew to expect a yay or nay and I wasn't stressing about it afterwards.
I got the job
Wishing you all the best for Monday - knock em dead!
I thought that rather than nekked you had to imagine the interviewer sitting on the loo with his or her kegs around their ankles! (On second thoughts,maybe not, tittering isn't conducive to a sucessful interview!)
Good luck btw!

In addition to Zazen's excellent tips, I thought of another one for when they ask if you have any questions. Ask them to tell you what a day in your life would be like if you got the job. In interview feedback I've had before, interviewers have always indicated that it was a really good question to ask, and one that very few people do.
