a little bit of a disaster

So I went for the interview today...I was literally in there for 15 mins. It was awful, i didn't know what to say, he didn't know what to ask, and I just can't quite grasp the whole interview thing. One tip i picked up from BM1 & 2 on Tueday was to thoroughly research about the company before I go. So I looked at all sorts of things, and I never got asked anything once about the company. It's still a good tip, a very good one, but i never got the chance to tell the man everything I knew about the company.

So I think it was everso slightly disasterous, and could have been far better, but I have no idea what went on. I zoned out completely, and well, I guess I'll have to wait and see. I don't hold out much hope though for that. Nevermind, at least i got an interview.

Interviews are problems for me. When I was younger I couldn't care less, quite frankly and interview was an interview. If I got the job, I got the job, if I didn't, I didn't. I never had a problem wih nerves or anything. I guess that because these days it's mega important, far more than it ever used to be, because I always had a job. So now I get really nervy, I waffle complete nonsense, I get confused with what I'm trying to say, and things go in and out my brain in seconds. If I don't catch them there and then that's it they're gone, lost and forgotten. I don't really have any idea what's happened whilst i've been in one. It's like i am in a completely different zone. I'm not going to geta job like that though am I? It's absolutely nuts, and it's just making things so much harder than it should otherwise be. RELAX Ashley.

I guess though if I wasn't bothered about getting a job I wouldn't get nervouse, then i'd probably ace it. Perhaps I just need to fool myself into thinking it doesn't matter...but unfortunately it does....booooooooooo....is there any key way to relax before an interview?

Some people think nerves make you perfom better. I think that's a load of nonsense!!
