    Hugs melly, sounds like you've got plenty of other options. When's the next interview?

    Hopefully this will cheer you up. I went to an interview once (only a few years ago, I can't even blame being young!) and got so flustered I couldn't answer even the most basic questions. The highlight of this stupendous afternoon was answering the question "tell us about an achievement you're proud of" with "my divorce".

    Oh the shame! What was I thinking?!? To make matters even worse this was for a job within the C of E so I told this absolute gem to a Bishop and a Dean of a cathedral.

    Sounds like it just wasn't the right one for you - onwards and upwards :)

    Do the Friday/Monday one appeal a bit more?

  • Oh Tea! I've said some silly/flippant things in interviews but that's better than all of them...

    Hugs, melly. Maybe this is just a blip on the interview scanner ;)

    Good news here - two interviews pending! Yay!

    That's very good news HBS - good luck!

    Sorry the interview didn't go well Melly, I'm sure you'll ace the next one! :)

    Big hugs for you Benrben, no advice as I'm rubbish at it, just ((hugs))

    Good luck HBS, and well done on lining up interviews so quickly, same to Melly.
