Help! I have an interview tomorrow and I am so petrified that I can't prepare for it!

I've had a weeks notice so plenty of time to prepare. I've been really really stupid and haven't prepared anything.

I hate interviews and I do really badly in them. They are just one big humiliating experience for me. I had an interview last year where I was told after I was too nervous and lacked confidence.

I feel so foolish for not preparing as I would really like this job. It's an internal post which I am already doing. If I mess this up I would be so embarrassed. Why do I do this?!

I have just today to turn things around. What's the best way to prepared for an interview with little time!

Let us know how you get on.

I always find unprepared for questions hard. I am a reflector and it takes time for me to answer questions with all the data in an interview as I am nervous.

Update!

They unbelievably offered me the job. I did get some feedback that I really really need to sell myself more and elaborate on my questions as I only just answered the questions. I would totally agree and glad the whole thing is over.
