I've got one on Tuesday that looks like my best shot at a new job since I got laid off in the summer. It's with a vice president of the company and the person whose position I'm filling since she got promoted
I'm just a little weirdo, I don't know how to make them want to hire me 
If they’re talking to you they already want to hire you and want you to do well. So relax and be yourself. When they ask you if you have any questions for them, make sure you ask them if they like working there, how the work life balance is, etc. the things you care about. It’s important for you to check the place for fit too so don’t neglect your needs.
Be professional. Wear a nice office wear, a suit if you want but that might be overkill. Don’t do anything silly like chew gum through the interview, show up disheveled or hungover or something, or god forbid lie about shit. Even inconsequential shit, or you might end up showing your ass if they ask you a bunch of follow up questions.
Researching the company is a nice touch if you have time for it. Research the field a bit that they work in too, you should be prepared to answer very simple questions about what they do. Basically they want to know, would this person be okay to work with, and can they be taught to do the job. That’s a pretty low bar. As long as you don’t bomb the interview you will be made in the shade 😎
