I really want to move up to the next grade in my sector but am being seriously hindered by my habit of drying up in interviews, forgetting everything I've prepared, etc.
Finally managed to get an interview for a job I wanted (not easy in the current climate, employers in my sector are tightening their belts and not recruiting) and honestly I was shit. Totally lost my trail a few times and looked really stupid. Made worse by the fact that this was an internal job and I might bump into these people again around the place 😭
This isn't the first time this has happened to me.
How can I improve? It's not lack of preparation, it's nerves and an inability to think on my feet in that sort of situation. I even had loads of notes blutacked around my screen (the interview was remote) but still forgot all my examples.
