I've Got An Interview!!

[MadMen]

Yay! Managed to get an interview for the mental health job I applied for.

Going in for an 'informal chat' on Friday, and have an interview on Monday. Eeekk!

Keep everything crossed for me please :-)

Oh, sorry Madmen. I din't notice the date and didn't read all the posts.

As has been said, fingers crossed for next time.

Look at this interview as experience gained and next time you'll be even better.

I think you should take the other up-coming position as you would get your foot 'in the door', and you'll be gaining experience. Give it a try, see what happens. I wish you all the best, Maddy. xx

Ah what a shame MM, still fingers crossed for the other vacancy. At least they had the decency to call you, I had an interview a month ago, I had to call them 2 weeks later to see if I was successful (not) but a letter woud be in the post, still haven't received it.

Hey I think you should be really proud of yourself. if they thought of you with a future position coming up you must have made the right impression. I've heard more crap talked about equality and diversity in the workplace than you can shake a stick at so try to take that with a pinch of salt. x

Sorry to hear that MadMen, I hate it when they get pedantic over words, I'm usually fairly good in interviews but I admit I'm not good with words and easily get tripped up on such questions, I shouldn't because I'm dealing with such issues every day in my work, its almost like they have set phrases in their heads and you must recite them accurately. Better luck next time.

This old chestnut is always a good one 'Tell me why that you think that you should get the job'.
