My First Ever Interview Tomorrow (Greggs) that I have yet to prepare for...

Hi,
As you can see already, I have my first ever interview at Greggs tomorrow, I am hoping I am able to answer the questions easily without stuttering as I always do when nervous. I have been very busy doing random side quests such as preparing and having a food taster session in hopes of starting a food business in the far future (not rn). Anyway, since I love to stay in the warm blanket of my home I have realised I have become very lazy and since I am waiting to start college I thought that I may as well get a job to go outside more and make money for my expenses (new clothes, food etc). However, due to constant procrastination and suddenly feeling "tired" when reminded that I have an interview to prepare for (typical), I am now gabazzoled that the interview is tomorrow. It is currently 20:30 and I will be using all my time to prepare.
Should be easy,right??.... Any Advice??
This is just a ramble of nothingness but I wanted to write something.
Wish me Luck! Has you guys ever had this same experience?

Hey! I had my first interview today. The most important thing is researching the company make sure you know the company initiatives and commitments as you can include that in why you want to work for the company. I’m not sure about greggs but for where I interviewed there were a lot of competency based questions “tell me about when you worked as part of a team” have a specific example for this.

They are going to ask you about why it’s important to maintain store policies e.g keeping to food hygiene standards

Did they ask if you were combat trained and ready to defend the sausage rolls and steak bakes. Greggs seems to be of high priority to looters right now.
