I'd start by making sure you can code in c++ and learn any pitfalls you may have. No sense interviewing when the first few questions on a technical interview may count you out. My first question of an interview was to write my own Vector implementation, second was to explain how smart pointers can leak memory.

There are a lot of free resources, Thinking in C++ has 2 volumes. Stroustrup and Myers write great books and there are many other authors.
