2 companies flying me out for interviews this week. Looking for any advice

Quick question that I already have: I plan on bringing copies of letters of rec from a previous supervisor and a professor (Yes, I'll be bringing copies of my resume also.) How do I go about handing this out during the interviews, or should I not worry about it and only hand them out if they ask?
All advice is welcome. TIA

Absolutely hand them out!
"Here's my resume' and a couple of letters of recommendation."
Good Luck! You will do just fine. Be yourself.

Definitely hand them out at the beginning of the interview.

If there is a female interviewing you, the very first thing you should do is ask her if she wants to come back to your hotel afterwards.
It shows assertiveness, pro-activity, and willingness to take calculated risks.
Anything less is beta.

He shouldn't have to even ask.
You should walk in with pre-printed business cards listing you as CEO of said company. After you distribute them, you should immediately fire the interviewer for not finding yourself sooner.
Just slide a hotel room key across the desk to the hottest woman in the room, and say "I may be there, or I may be out with this girl I met on my way in. You do what you have to."

Be confident, but not cocky. Make sure you smile a lot.

Let them know that you've always felt the flame broiled burgers were much better than anything McDonalds had to offer

As soon as you sit down take out a notepad and pen. Take notes - casually. Write down the names of the people interviewing you. Capture the key points of each question and make sure you cover them in your answer. You'll come across as thorough and detail-oriented.
Eye contact - make it and hold it with each person as you answer the questions. Work in their names if you can ("As I said in the reply to Scott's question . . .").
Good Luck!

Have your past experiences and answers for behavioral questions in your head ready to go

When they ask you " where do you see yourself in 10 years" DO NOT say " doing your wife"
Say something like " hopefully working here"
