Good luck today

Sally,

I will be thinking about you today. I know you will do great. You can now really tell a great story about coming to NYC, doing a bunch of research and networking and successfully landing an internship offer from a top firm. That story will make you more attractive to other firms. 

Be sure to let the interviewer know that you are very interested in working for their firm and have specific reasons why you feel that way. Remember, interviewing is never about YOU, it is always about THEM. If you make them feel good, then they will like you. Take this to heart, "People will rarely remember what you do or what you say, but they will always remember how you make them feel."

Final thought: Have fun! People love to do business with people who are having fun.

Make it a great Monday,

Dad
