Relax and be honest.

After the interview, send a thank you note. I got my first job partly
because I sent a thank you note. My then-boss still remembers that note!

Good one......I forgot all about the Thank You note. You would be surprised how many people ignore them. Regardless of whether I connect with the interviewer, or whether it is for a permanent or contract position, I ALWAYS send a personal thank you note (in addition to a thank you e-mail). I include my business card and I've gotten a lot of referrals over the years because of them.
