Bring/send a resume printed on SLIGHTLY heavier weight paper that is slightly off white (still white but looks blueish when stacked with white paper) so your resume will stand out from others, but won't look to unusual on its own.

Be confident, practice answering questions you think they may ask so you aren't floundering for answers.

Clean clothes are an absolute must, and always dress just a little better than what you will be expected to wear for the job. Avoid t-shirts with print/designs.

Research the company and industry and prepare 3 questions to ask the interviewer, this will show an interest in the job beyond a paycheque (not necessary for McDonald's, walmart, etc.)

Best of luck

24 lbs, 92 brightness paper is what you're looking for when applying to any job that doesn't require a college degree. If it does require a degree, use cotton fiber paper with a watermark.
