Fake it till you make it. Pretend like you have the confidence you are lacking in social situations until it becomes a part of you.

You could talk to your doctor. He could prescribe some anti-anxiety meds.
Anxiety can be caused by many medical (non-psychiatric) causes that can be easily remedied. You should find a good doctor and get checked out. You may have a deficiency of vitamins, lack of amino acids, hormonal imbalance or toxicity. These things can be determined from a blood test.

Don't use a psychiatrist for this -- they're quick to label you and prescribe dangerous mind altering drugs yet they have no objective tests to back up their diagnoses.
Simply don't care about anybody... just be yourself... do your job well... and socializing will come when you are accustomed to the surrounding...
Think of it this way...
When you are on the clock, it is not a social situation. You are being paid to be there and keep busy.
Trust yourself and your abilities. Don't doubt what you've learned. If you are asked a question that catches you of guard, don't rush it. Most interviewers will give you time to think about the question. Just take deep breathes.
I feel the same and suffer from the same type of anxiety. I would love to talk to you and others who feel the same. My husband is extremely outgoig which makes my pain all the worse.
