in 1 1/2 hours i have a job interview, this is the first interview (well proper one) ive had in 14 years!!!! then only the 3rd in my life

worst bit im being interviewed by people i know and know me, and then an interview by a group of patients

78 applicants for 13 jobs - so 1/6 chance

sadly its not on a you know the job its yours basis, its all done on a scoring system and you have to waffle and mention certain things to get the points, and im bloody useless at that

hey ho, ill go do my best but i wont find out until next Tuesday or Wednesday as they are still interviewing Monday, at least the cockpitfest should take my mind off it


right i better go get ready, thanks for letting me vent :bang: :bang:

Best of luck, I really hope you're successful.

If anyone goes into a formal job interview without nerves, that's a good thing to worry about. Being a bit on edge can also work in your favour!

One piece of (totally unsolicited) advice I'd give is not to over-analyse the interview when you walk away from it as you're too close to the event. We all think of better answers that could have been given, with 100% hindsight. We'll try to take your mind off it by distracting you with shiny model kits over the weekend.

Doing your best is all you can do. Good luck and hopefully you will have good news for us on Saturday.

As a side note, I`m now into my 2nd month at my new job and I had 5 interviews including a telephone interview and a Skype interview before getting it. Just a sign of the times these days down here in Londinium....!

My thoughts exactly.

I seem to recall that, some time ago, you mentioned that your patients are generally not the kind of people one would like to invite for dinner, so I wonder what those folks would want to know from a prospective nurse :blink:

Good luck either way, even if it's out of your hands by now...
