Just about to finish work and then Im off for an interview. Starting to get really nervous now, normally I'm fine. I think its just because I could really do with the job as its permanent so would mean I could actually start looking for a house to buy.

I've had a few, just go in and be yourself. They either love you or hate you. I've got a few jobs lined up now Start one on Monday though. Wanna see what i hear back now though from the others.

Fact you have an interview is good. You now have as much chance as the other guys being interviewed. As said, just go in and be yourself. If the boss is a misrable git then i don't wanna work there! Tell them what they want to hear such as you want to be trained and not move about companies, you wanna stay there and work your way up. If they ask you if you have done something they require for the job and you haven't but know you can learn it before hand then just lie

I don't do much research tbh. It's more about your skills and if they like you are not really. They usually go through the company a little at the start of the interview.

I'm good at blagging stuff Pretty much how if got through uni

Where about is the interview? Few places on Water Street looking for IT staff. Had an interview for an insurance compnay there and waiting to hear back, got another one lined up but think i will have started work before that one comes through.

Had this interview today, well it was a short interview (round one apparantley), 22 people being interviewed they told me 6-7 being asked back and would find out by 6pm.

Just had a call about 20 mins ago, got another one tomorrow morning at 11.45. It's a 5-stage process apparantly.

Company is new and very very fast moving, basically they do alot of sky's, mbna's, disneyfilms, face-2-face advertising or something. Lad who interviewed me was 30 tops was MD of liverpool office and the role he's interviewing for (the main role) is to fill his shoes in 8 months.
