Interview

Well, it went well! Had two people interviewing me which was VERY nerve-wracking, but they were both very nice and didn't ask me any difficult questions that I hadn't prepared myself for.

They gave me the first spelling test since I was 11 which was a novelty, and a gruelling typing test which involved me typing a page of text in 3 mins (NOT easy, I can tell you), but I think overall I did well.

Hopefully I'll hear back from them early-mid next week - keep your fingers crossed for me!!

Interview Day

Big apologies for not writing anything interesting this week - have been thinking of nothing but the interview I have in a few hours and the gruelling trip to Manchester tomorrow morning.

Will write again later, post-interview. Expect either positive waffling or short, dejected sentences.

Christ, I'm nervous.

Job Interview

Holy cow farts batman - I've got an interview!

It's with The Herald on Friday, and I have to say I'm more than a little nervous. Usually with interviews I can bring the crippling nerves down a couple of notches by thinking to myself, 'well, I don't really want the job anyway, but I'll do my best and see how it goes...'

This time that's not going to cut it. I want this job so much I'd go religious to get it, or miss my cousin's wedding - which incidentally I might just have to do.

With any luck in a couple of weeks someone will ask me what I do for a living and I can say, 'Well, actually, I work on a newspaper."

Aaaahhhhhhh!

Must remember to ration my coffee intake on Friday morning.
