Hello everyone,
I have a job interview tomorrow at mid-day (UK time). The interview consists of 4 elements lasting 4 hours (I think) in total. I have a group discussion (1 hour), a presentation (15 minutes), a panel interview and a test (1 hour). Today and yesterday I have been getting more and more anxious. I cannot eat, my stomach is churning and I am so so tired even though last night I slept for 8 hours. The interview is made even weirder because I am being interviewed for the job I am temporarily doing and have been doing for the last year and a half!
Also, I went for this job in March (same interview process) and didn't get it; my manager at the time phoned me in the evening and told me that unfortunately I didn't get the job but also he extended my temporary contract! EVEN WEIRDER - the lady who DID get the job in March instead of me was promoted 3 months later to be my manager! She is one of the interviewers on the panel tomorrow.
The last time I interviewed for this job, I felt like I did ok. I wasn't too anxious and everyone was telling me that I would get the job no problem BUT I DIDN'T. To make it worse, in the group discussion part I was with the lady who would eventually get the job (and is now my manager) and I thought she was was not particularly good.
All the people I work with want me to get the job and keep telling me that this time I will.
Sorry to go on, I am not sure if any of this background is really relevant. But I feel sick and like tomorrow is going to be one of the worst days of my life.
