Just keep positive, go in with confidence and be yourself. As for a resume, if you have a computer program such as Microsoft word or what not you should have templates to help you set up a resume.
Usually you put your name, address and contact info at the top.
then use subplots throughout, it's basically simple and keep it as an outline:
Name
Address
Phone number
Objective:
What you hope to achieve or your goals with this position
Professional Qualifcations:
Your strong points usually this is in bullet form, that make you qualified for the position
Work History here:
List all jobs in order, with date you worked to and from
Education
List all schools you attended and degrees and dates attended
Personal Strengths
Things you consider your personal strengths with regards to your persona or how you are on the job.

Here's Monster's input on Resumes: http://resume.monster.com/
If you have any volunteer work, list it!
Ignore the "One page resume" rule, it can be up to 3 pages. Also, be generous on the information you place under each job.
Also, have reference contact information on hand incase they ask for it (and notify your references about the position too).
Once you're done with the interview, take the person's contact information and email them later that day re-itterating what you talked about in the interview and remind them how perfect you would be for the job.

There's tons of info online about doing up a resume, I would just research it and you'll do fine
My best piece of advice for you is: Make sure you're spelling and grammar are correct. I throw out resumes that have one typo or grammatical error.
