Answer 2

Well if this is your first job interview you wont have much on your CV but you could list all your schools and your exam results, hobbies etc.  Try to act confident.They will ask you the usual stuff,like, what hours you are able to work , if you are flexible and why you would like to work for them( which i always find a stupid question, but there you go). Its always a good idea to know a little bit about the company to. Make a good effort with your appearance as first impressions count.            good luck

You should have sent a CV when you APPLIED for the job - the company can decide if it's worth interviewing you by looking at your CV.

In interviews you are asked what you are like at dealing with difficult customers/colleagues, what are your strengths/weaknesses, timekeeping, things like that.

Usually you don't need a CV for jobs like supermarket work.  Most part-time jobs that you'll apply to as a student will just ask you to fill n an application form.  I guess you've already filled one in or they probably wouldn't have invited you to an interview, so don't worry about anything else for now.  You probably won't need a CV until after you're finished with university.

If they haven't told you to take anything with you, then don't worry.  Some employers will ask you to take things like your passport, but if they haven't said then don't worry.

If you want to find out what questions will be asked, then you can google interview questions to find the most common ones.  Obviously they'll want to know about customer service experience and they'll want you to provide examples - if you don't have work experience, you need to think about things you've done at school or wherever that were providing a service to someone.  They'll also ask about strengths, weaknesses, why you want the job, etc.  Good luck!

Yeah you will need a CV and try not to tell any white lies on it aswell. They will ask you a variety or questions and you should just answer as honestly and with as much detail as possible. Talk about how you are good at team work but work well as an individual this always works well
