It's all fun and games until somebody loses an eye
It was pretty shabby of them to keep you waiting like that.
I really hope you have exaggerated how shitty it was.
I hope so too.
Unfortunately, I think having had the feedback from the previous interview made it worse - I knew what I ought to be saying but I just couldn't say it ... also, I had 'gone off the boil' as my mum would've said, by the time I got called in. I was hoping they would re-schedule...but,hey,it IS all over now.
Shame it'll be the end of next week before we find out.
Hey - buck up! It's not just about how good you were but also the other candidates. Imagine what the person who had the two hour interview (that pushed your's back) must be thinking. I'm guessing, "Gee I wish there had been more silences" or "When they asked me how I was- perhaps it wasn't entirely appropriate to start in the birth canal and work forwards to present day."
Less is more. Still waters run deep. Empty vessels make the loudest noise...etc...
Interviews are always worse than you think, you always think of better answers once you've left, and other questions pop into your head making you wonder why on earth you forgot to ask them.
I'm sure you did better than you think!
I was just going to say what Gordon said! Best of luck Beth...
Fingers crossed for you Beth. It's all so arbitrary anyway.
kissing - can't work out how I feel about the person who over ran so horrendously; partly I'm thinking they must've been fantastic, because they had so much to say...on the other hand the panel DID say they would stop me when I'd given enough examples of things, so maybe they talked & talked & talked without making ANY sense at all...just wish I could find out who it was.
Gordon - I really hope I did do better than I think. There's been a rumour going around today that the panel were having to explain the questions to everyone as nobody seemed to be 'getting' them - maybe it's the questions that were the problem, not me! (and thanks for the tip, they did look as though they'd never been asked anything like that before!)
jonathan & looby - thank you! i don't expect you to keep your fingers crossed til next friday, but every little helps.
MySpace generation eh? The panel ain't the only one's that are puzzled.
And tis good to see the music back in abundance. That's a dodgy REM song, but I forgive you cos you have the Flips in there. So that's okay then!
