you can test yourself if you answer right.

I have been to three job interviews. I didnt find any same questions like in the link I gave though, but atleast you get the picture, It depends on the kind of job.

Be on time, ask question about the company, look in to the eyes, offer your hand for shake, don't interrupt:)
Good luck:)!

Research the company, get the dressing code right. Depending on the position you're applying for, just make sure you have some stuff on your mind.
DO NOT brag you previous achievement and salaries. Look interested, don't bargain a lot on the salary.
After researching the company (size, work fields) you might be able to determine who's interviewing you, the manager? HR guy? your future direct supervisor? that can give you an idea about the questions, manager might go easy, HR piece of cake (just show that you have good manners, team worker, nice, smile) as direct supervisor you might be asked some hard questions.
Every case is unique. You can't measure the result of your application based on arbitrary anecdotes online.
