I've been looking up questions that they ask you and trying to prepare myself mentally for what to say for those. A lot of sites and videos said to rehearse, but I feel like that would make me more nervous trying to remember what I thought about saying at home lol.
The questions you listed are really good for me to ask them. Thanks so much for answering!

Oh... I can't tuck in the shirt on option B. There's a button missing  
I know, that's an automatic "don't wear this", but with the shirt untucked you can't tell. I'm probably going to go with the more bland of the two just because it looks nicer, and they will focus more on me than how my pants are too big...

Trust me, alot of the questions I have asked in interviews come up in response to stuff they talk about in the interview. I think as long a you give them a sense that you're responsible, friendly, and a hard worker, you'll be alright. Also, yeah, go with option A 
Good luck!

Thank you! I'm hoping that by emphasizing what I'm good at, and my willingness to learn, it'll kind of outweigh my lack of experience for the position.

Maybe put top B with the pants in A? That would look decent as well. And that necklace is too big for an interview but it is very pretty I love turquoise.

i would choose option A and add a necklace to liven it up   Lots of DR'S offices dont want receptionist w/2 much experience because every office runs a certain way and its easier to train someone how u want something done ''from scratch'' then to break and retrain someone who ''thinks'' they know how to do a certain job.

Every place in this area that posts a job add say 1-2 years experience minimum. I hate that, because you can't get experience without SOMEONE giving you a chance. I'm hoping the fact that I know it's something I'll be good at, and it's something I want to learn, especially with this particular company, will help. I'm so excited about the company it's with because I've been a patient at some of their other offices.

I just wanted to update everyone and let you know my interview went amazing! They said they had several interviews and had to check references, so it would be one day next week before they made a decision, but that I should hear from them next week!!

The girl I saw waiting as I left was wearing a short sleeved, short dress with open toed platforms. That also makes me optimistic lol

Delayed response... I received a call earlier this week telling me that the company I interviewed with wanted to offer me a position..... just not the one I interviewed for.
It's still a receptionist position, but instead of working at one set office, they want me to be a floater. I'll go to all of their offices in this area. She said that the need at the office I interviewed for wasn't as great as they thought it was, but that they didn't want to lose me as a potential permanent employee, so she got it arranged for me to be a full time floater until they had a position at a permanent location.
I'm thinking they probably hired someone else for the office, and decided to keep me as back up in case something doesn't work out?

I accepted anyway. I go for orientation on Monday to set up everything for a background check and a drug screening, and approximately a week later I'll start. Now I just need to turn in my notice at my current job.
