Default I have an interview at my local pharmacists. Any tips?

Hello, first of all, I thank you for reading this, as I feel unworthy. I just butted into this forum because I gave in an application for a part time job at my village chemist, (Alliance Pharmacy) and have an interview on Monday.

I do not have plans for a long term career in the field, but perhaps someone could give me some advice on what they would want from an assistant?

I did say on the form that I was "quite interested in medicine", which is true... I mean.... I'd happily watch a documentary about it, y'know?
Not that I'd know what to say if he asked me about this 'interest'.

My last attempt at a job was at a delicatessen, and I was just too slow at organizing priorities. I don't think I should lie about this. What sort of duties does one have as a pharmacy shop assistant? I can only imagine having to remember the names of some medicines and where they are on the shelves.
