Any you guys ever felt physically sick at the thought of going for an interview ! ??
I went for one yesterday and must admit I don't ever recall being as nervous or so tense :shock:
The interview consisted of 3 assessments lasting 4 hrs nearly! - the first was basic computer skills filling out forms from listening to clients with orders online ..
I was totally :shock: to get through that stage!
secondly the next assessment was even more daunting :shock: Role play !! was great fun but I thought I was overlly nervous and blew it ! and lastly the worst of all was the actual Interview itself! I wasn't prepared for some of the questions they were about to put on me rolleyes :roll: so basically answered to the best of my ability as by now I was so convinced I had thrown it away anyways sad
Can you imagine my face when I recieved a phone call this morning to say I got it!!! :happy: :happy: Just had to share this with you as I have been hyper all bleeding day!!! lol

I get nervous when doing anything for the first time - particularly meeting new people from here!
I've given up being nervous,
So I'm a right cocky twat now!

That's part of the trick, act naturally. For the personal interview, that's what they want to see, the person.
Congratulations..

Well done, I hope you enjoy your new job...............
Nice one, well done. :thumbup: I'll prob be a bit nervous meeting everyone at the munch since i'm going myself! Nevermind, as soon as the drinks flow I think it'll be fine. lol
well done :rose:
i find that most people get nervious about most things if the outcome is a result of a change in life style or environment, its normal to feel nervious when you make a big dission in your life, still its how you overcome them nerves and by the sound of it you have totaly done yourself credit.
be proud of your achievements
:happy: :happy: :happy: :happy:
:thrilled: for you
Hey Lucy - Nice one!!!
I was at an interview yesterday too, and am pretty confident it'll work out.
Didn't help when I got on the train to learn there'd been a signal failure halfway though....crowded platform, no train, major nerves....anxious wasn't the word for it!
I get really nervous with anything like interviews, so I know where you were at....still all came good for ya hun!
Well done, and enjoy your new job!

Well done Lucy!
Just to help in your preparation, lets do some relevant role play -
"Big mac and fries please!"
lol wink
Just wanted to apologise - managed to submit my last post twice somehow...didnt want to be seen as greedy!!
no never, had to many working my way up in the job i'm in now.
my secret is telling myself that i dont really need this job, life will go on if i don't get it.
still give it 100% but if you don't get it it's not the end of the world.
i get more nervous going back to someones house that you've only just met - real butterflies then - try telling myself that it'll be ok just relax - but the flutters are something else.
glad you got the job anyway x
Congratulations Lucy, the secret to getting anything in this world is to not want it wink lol

Well done Lucy. The thing that gets me most nervous is trying to speak to people I don't know, or know very well such as at munches or most recently at a wedding when my sister had asked me to speak to a friend of a friend of hers as she didn't know many people at the wedding, Five hours after my first opportunity to do so I spoke to her :!:

Hi Lucy;
First of all congratulations on the new job - hope all goes well for you.
To answer your question though, as you may have picked up in Holland I really do not know the last time I had an interview!
I am in the lucky position that folk phone me up and ask me if I can start next week!
As long as the calls keep coming it is a good way to work. lol

Been months since I was last at a karaoke. What a night, I pulled this old blonde slapper and danced close (I'm suprised she managed to get up off the steps she was sitting on let alone dance) and kissed her until she cleared off to these other blokes. Mind you I only got one turn on the karaoke :cry: I must have been extra crap that night :lol:

Interviews are bloody hard these days.......I interview people sometimes myself and the questions I have to ask people are ridiculous......even for the lower paid jobs!
I once had to ask a would be receptionist to role play what she would do in case of a gun toting lunatic arriving at the desk......and this was in the NHS (I know NHS services are bad, but WTF!!)
Anyway, well done for getting the job!
This confirms why I have been working for the same company for almost fourteen years (what a waste of my life), I don't fancy the interviews, though having said that, I get very cold easily so couldn't do an outside job, I get tired driving so couldn't do a driving job, I can't lift anything heavier than a bag of sugar so couldn't do any lifting jobs, and don't have any computer type qualifications so wouldn't have much to go for anyway. I got desperate a year ago and the only job I though I could apply for was a sausage maker in a local butchers. Oh and I hate managing staff and I don't like akward people (customers).
I wanted to be an accountant you know. Mind you my dream job I applied for fourteen years ago (and didn't get) has just been given the chop.

Congrats on your new job hope all works out and its what you want to do.
As for nerves I just dont have them at interviews. In my profession I have to give public consultations and expos, so when it comes to interviews I suppose I am lucky.
And Ive DJ'd and MC'd infront of 100's if not thousands of people, I must be strange cause I get a buzz out of it
Congrats on the new job Lucy biggrin
I'm in the applications and interviews mess at the moment - and my worst nightmare is interviews. I'm going for the kind of post where ya get panel interviews by a row of stern looking people in suits peering over a bloody great big desk at you, sat on ya little chair in the middle of the room :uhoh: - and they fire questions at you left right and centre... :scared: ..in a random fashion so you have no idea what's coming next.....
I had one the other day - interview for 50 minutes, then stand up with OHP and give a 10 minute presentation on how you meet the criteria on the person specification .... and then another 10 mins of questions. :shock: Came out traumatised, sick as a dog on way home....havent heard back so am assuming I didnt get the post - and have 2 more like that to come next week :cry:
give me newbie at first munch nerves anyday! :D
