Check Glassdoor. People either seem to love it or hate it. Also, when I googled the name "pyramid scheme" was one of the suggestions...

TONs of interview guides online.
But… show up early, come prepared with more questions than you could possibly ask, dress nice, and be the type of person they would like to be around 8+ hours/day for the next couple years.

I don’t know your situation but do your due diligence on it. I saw it’s 100% commission which is a pretty big risk. I would ask a lot of questions on the tools they give you to succeed. What % of reps hit quota?
I don’t want to be negative and I am happy you are excited. Who knows maybe they have changed there ways or maybe it’s just a couple of negative reviews

Step 1 should be to take a hard look at the company you're interviewing with.
Look at their website, learn about them, what they sell and to whom, and review any success stories/case studies they've posted. This is at the minimum. You'll need to have some knowledge of the company before you take that interview.
Also do more digging on the company itself. Look at news about them from outside sources. Check out Glassdoor and RepVue for reviews about them and expected comp from inside sources. Sort out if you really want to work there by finding out more about the company culture.
Reach out to former or current reps on LinkedIn. Find out how they did, if they'd recommend working there, etc.
Finally, if this is your first interview, even if the company doesn't look like a place you want to work: take the interview! It will be great practice. You don't have to take any job that's offered to you, but getting the practice will help you with future interviews.

Reviews don't sound good: slave mentality, door-to-door sales, very low base/almost 100% commissions, high turnover (revolving door). Be careful!

I found some stuff on pyramid schemes and ‘direct marketing’ with this company. Apparently they’re owned by some MLM type companies. Didn’t get too far into it but DEFINITELY look hard into them

I would be wary of this company. Anytime pyramid scheme is even uttered in the same breath as a company, I tend to steer clear.
