All done. Fuck me I waffled on. Time will tell. I could soon be a smelly student again. Thanks for the tips you big bunch of benders. 

you had an interview to be a student?

what did they get you to do?

  • smoke roll ups
  • sit on the floor in pubs
  • drink supermarket value spirits before going out
  • eat crispy pancakes three times a day
  • grow a shit beard
  • pretend to like jamiroquai

anything else?

Got my first interview in 7 years tomorrow. Fucking hate them. I know i can smash the job, but I just become a nervous wreck, especially when faced with a panel. You lot on 100k a year any tips? I've tried rubbing myself with a bloon.

Play with the balls and work the shaft

Interviewer - What would you say is your worst trait?

Blondie - I’m too honest

Interviewer - I don’t really consider honesty to be a bad trait.

Blondie - I don’t give a fuck what you think!

What's you're strong point - I don't have a weak point

What's your weak point - I don't have a strong point

Any copies going spare?..... Asking for all my friends on WWays 😊

Worked for me the other week. Just told a shitload of work anecdotes - keeping in with the ‘experience’ line previously suggested - dragged what should have been a 45 minute interview in to over 90 minutes. Must have done the trick as they offered me the job the next day.

Just be yourself 

 

If that’s not good enough, be someone else 😀

It’ll be reet; have a glass of summat tonight.

You can not factor in nerves.

Not had a job interview in decades and the interview I had for the job I've got now was an utter disaster. My nerves and anxiety got the better of me. About halfway through I said it's not going well is it? If I was interviewing myself I wouldn't have given me the job. The moral of this is that you are always in with a chance even if you think you went down like the Titanic.

Indeed

Being relaxed can be critical.

Last interview I had when I did not get the job the feedback I got was that my answers were too long and detailed. I laughed at the woman giving me the feedback. TBF she said it was an unusual comment.
