    Hello everyone, I don't normally post on the daily thread... just had a call from work to say I have two interviews on 16th January (at risk of redundancy at the moment so seeking 'redeployment') and I cant find anyone to tell and no one is answering their phones! Wooooooo!

    Excitement over, fear will soon set in as impending interview will scare me to my very core!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    I want to give you every bit of encouragement I possibly can.
    Believe in yourself.
    And don't forget that beyond the clouds that sometimes get in your way,
    the sun is shining just for you ....
    and everything is going to be okay.'

    excellent - you may have a choice of jobs, a fantastic position to be in.

    Couple of tips for the role play

    remember- they are all on your side. It doesn't matter if you make a mistake, they won't hold it against you as they want you to do well. Take a big deep breath before going in. Research, research, research so you know your knowledge of the company/department is strong.

    Ask questions (that awful bit at the end) such as 'what challenges do you see the department facing over the next few years'.
