One key advice which got me my first job whilst at sixth form is talking to your career advisors about your concerns and worries you might have. I asked my form tutor and she sent me to the careers team. They arranged a mock interview and gave me excellent feedback at the end. The lady at careers did a great work because she also researched a little about the company and had a rough idea of what the questions would be like. IT WAS VERY HELPFUL. Don’t be afraid to ask for help, always comes handy.

Something I do that helps me with confidence is talking to interviewers a little bit informal such as talking about what I did on my day so they can see I am not nervous and what I am like.
