September 2012 Weddings

I got another interview!

I just got an email about another interview for the job I want! I'm excited but also SUPER nervous. I feel like this is my best lead at this point so I just hope it goes well! The email says to be prepared to spend 2 or 3 hours there, so I'm wondering what exactly we will be doing, haha. My friend who already works at the company says she thinks it's between me and one other person at this point. I feel like that should make me feel better, but actually KNOWING that there is specific competition is making me more nervous! Anyway, just had to share, I'm excited but I don't want to tell too many of my friends/coworkers in case nothing ends up coming from it...

Any interview tips out there? Any advice would be appreciated :-)

  • 2-3 hours?!  YIKES!!

    My advice is to be yourself.  Don't try too hard.  I think when it comes down to a final interview, they already know you are qualified, now they're just trying to see who the best fit will be with everyone else who works there.

    Just because you saw it on Four Weddings, doesn't mean it's a good idea.
  • YAY! Hold your head up high and believe in yourself. Don't forget to mile, be polite and friendly. Make sure you have a good knowledge of the company, its mandate, policies, yada yada; whatever you can find online :P

    Best of luck to you!!

    <div>I agree. Of course, you have to know the company, etc etc. But my boss actually told me that when they were looking to hire (when I was applying) part of the process was finding someone that fit well into their little "work family". Apparently I fit. =) Just try to relax and have confidence in yourself. One thing that helped me was to think "I don't <em>need</em> this job." I had a job that gave me decent(ish) money so I was just looking for something to make me happier. And it worked out! Good luck and keep us posted!!!</div>
  • Best interview tip.... wear your prettiest, sexiest underwear!! Don't know why but ya just always feel that "man I feel great!" vibe and it always come thru! Best part when you come home to celebrate ya look GOOOOD! Wink
  • Yay! Good luck :-)

  • Thanks for all the advice, ladies! The interview is going to be on Thursday and I am nervous and excited. I think the hardest thing for me is that I'm a little shy around strangers, so I'm just going to try to take your advice and be confident! Luckily my friend who already works there is going to meet with me tomorrow to talk about the interview (I have to do some kind of test while I'm there). If I got the job I'd have the desk next to her, which would be so fun! She was joking that she would just stick a piece of paper with my name on it on the chair to give them a hint, haha. Anyway, I will keep you all posted, keep your fingers crossed!

    bridalmomma--I will also take your advice, haha, I'm willing to try anything at this point! At the very least my FI will be happy to see me when I get home :-)
