Today I have my first job interview since leaving my old job to raise my son. I have some how found a perfect school hours job. ( sadly not term time only but the holidays should not be too much of a issue) The scary part is that im so worried I wont get it as not only am I very scared and anxious person but im also recovering from a foot injury and im worried they wont give me the job based on the shoes I will have to wear to the interview. There supportive walking style trainers. My interview outfit is also very basic, plain black tshirt and trousers but they were the only things I could find that I felt comfortable in.

Good luck for today! I am sure it will be fine. Try and relax ( rescue remedy is good!) and take your time to answer the questions. Do a bit of research on the organisation and have a few questions to ask the interviewer/s.

As long as you are smart and presentable, I wouldn’t worry about your footwear ( no one will even notice I’m sure!)

Best of luck and feel free to let us know how it goes 🙂

Thank you both so much. I did mention the shoes and they told me not to worry about them.
