Just that really- I’m not sure anyone can reassure me but (i’m not really young or cool enough to be using this word) it left me with a feeling of “ick”.
Some of you may have seen an earlier post of mine- I’m currently being pushed out of my job so I have a solicitor involved.
I’m frantically searching for jobs in a very quiet job market. I had my first interview for this job and the feedback was that they were thrilled with me. They asked for a second interview to meet another manager and it felt like a very cold reception. She asked at one point if I’d just given a specific answer because the recruiter had coached me to say that (which he hadn’t).
The next step for this process is to travel quite a distance at quite an expense for an in-person interview.
I have interviews set up with two other companies (one is a second interview and one is a first). I have no guarantee, obviously, that any will make an offer but if this company asks me to do the third interview should I go? If it wasn’t for the feeling of desperation and panic I wouldn’t be considering this job.
I have savings to sustain me for about 9 months (although It was hard work saving that and I hadn’t envisioned spending it on survival) but I’m an anxious person and being unemployed is not the best option for me.
