My husband has a job interview tonight for a part time job at a shop. He is meant to be messaging me when he's done so I can pick him up.

I'd assumed the interview would last maybe up to an hour. It was at 6.15pm and I haven't heard anything yet, more than 2.5 hours later. The shop closes at 5.30 so it can't be that he's doing a trial.

I'm starting to worry but trying not to. Could an interview for a part time shop job really last nearly 3 hours?

He's home. His interview was indeed still ongoing (!) - 2hours 45mins. Whoever suggested group interview was correct.

Trust him to message me literally 5 minutes after I posted making me look silly! :D

Thanks for your support anyways. Flowers

DD went for a part time job whilst in the sixth form. Instead of the 20 minute interview I expected, she and others had to do various group tasks and a presentation. Whole thing took 3 hours whilst I sat in a car park thinking she had been kidnapped!

I don't understand why you'd come on here to ask a bunch of strangers who haven't a clue, without calling him first. Call him Smile

Glad he's okay, also, I love your username!

I worry about my DP quite a lot in situations like this or when he doesn't reply. If it were me, I would call him and if that didn't work, I would just drive to where you are supposed to be picking him up from and wait

Fingers crossed - hopefully he gets the job!
