Ideal role was asked to apply for it.
Normally I would be ok but I need to do a presentation by tomorrow so far it’s a mess.
Main problem is I’m having is struggling to focus (background illness atm) cannot get my thoughts straight and now I’m massively panicking. Worried I’m going to make a fool of myself and although I don’t work for this organisation we cross over a lot so really don’t want to think I’m a bumbling idiot 😢😢😢
8 hours so far on this utterly shitshow of a presentation another 5 hours I could spend it today and Tomo but I’m not sure what I’m doing massively panicking

Can you take a break? Go for a walk and then come back to it? Do you have an outline of what you want to include in what order? Do you have some one you can present it too who will give you constructive feedback?

PowerPoint has a ‘record’ function. I had similar problems writing a presentation for my last job and found it hugely helpful to record and then re-watch myself presenting. No matter what state the presentation is in, record it and play it back; watch the whole thing and critique it as if you were marking an assignment. Make notes as you watch it through and then at the end, make those changes. Then repeat the whole process. Even if it’s a mess and the order/flow is wrong, watching it from an ‘outside’ perspective usually helps de-scramble thoughts and work out what should go where. Good luck, I’m sure it’ll be great!

Demonstrate how you would design a campaign
Discuss data
Methodology
Who would be involved
How measure success

So far I’ve done data and methodology
🙁

If they thought you a bumbling idiot, they wouldn't have asked you to apply. If you underperform, they will recognise that anxiety has played a part. They still won't think you are a bumbling idiot.

Have you got another thread? Same advice applies. Have a bath, a walk, do s9meth8ng to reset your head then come back to it.

What sort of campaign?

Measure of success - what is the campaign trying to achieve?

Who are the organisations internal and external stakeholders?

Good luck today, hope all goes well.
