So I had an interview for a pre-university course today. I'm usually good at interviews (I have a friend who works for a very prestigious company, who jokes that she'd love to interview me, because I've gotten almost every job I've ever interviewed for, including some that I shouldn't haven't even gotten through to the interview stage for because I was not experienced enough). I've worked for some very well known companies and organisations, including a high end travel company, a very high end property company, a well known online auction company, and a prestigious medical university. So basically, I've always been good at interviews.
But today I tanked. I've been out of education for years (am 31), it was terrifying. I stumbled over my words, had to pause to think for ages to reply to questions. At one point, the woman working away on the computer in the corner of the room actually turned around and gave me a sympathetic smile. I'm gutted. There are 65 people competing for 10 places. The woman interviewing me looked utterly unimpressed. I'm kicking myself. Will find out tomorrow of I got a place, not holding my breath.
