Fred - in addition to all suggestions above, if you are truly interested in this new position/career, make sure it is abundantly clear during the interview that you are (this is not desperate in my opinion).
I conduct alot of interviews at my job looking for new talent and I can't tell you how many times a qualified candidate arrives and shows no enthusiasm for the job. Most times I'll offer the position to a less qualified candidate who shows a strong work ethic/enthusiasm.
Good luck!
