First job interview
Sep. 11th, 2003 12:18 pmIt would appear I have a job interview on Monday. In Cambridge! Dearie me, I'd not expected that. Now i'm very nervous and feeling shy about the whole thing, and unsure of what I know. I've never been good at interviews in my life. In fact, it fairly safe to say I'm appalingly bad at interviews. I'm scared of the whole job interview idea, and I have a sudden urge to cancel it but i know that's not really a good idea. But I'm panicked!!!! Can I just hide and will it go away???
Any of you Cambridge peoples know anything at all about Apama? *wonders*
Heather Nova tomorrow, with the fab
kmazzy. Yaaaaaaay. And then birthday party in cambridge on Saturday - see some of you there.
Friendly email has been sent to catgirl. Waiting. Waiting. Waiting.....i'm holding my breath and feel like a tightly wound spring.
Update: Just remembered - I still have pink streaks in my hair. Are these compatible with job interviews? Should I attempt to hide them?

Unless you're being interviwed by me, cos I am a total bitch and like to make people squirm, they aren't there to catch you out really, unless you lied on your CV or sommat. Most of the horrible, open ended questions about this or that scenario don't have right or wrong answers, they just want to know what *you'd* do, so don't panic and think they are after a specific answer they probably aren't.
So what did you think of lovely Aylesbury then?

Theere was a fab Noodle place, and a pub that played half-decent music (the Bell, I think).
What else are you doing for your Birthday, other than B-Movie?

Date: 2003-09-11 05:17 am (UTC)I got talking to some of the local alternative types in the Bell - they seem friendly enough. :)
Birthday
Date: 2003-09-11 05:07 am (UTC)My actual birthday is kinda out of my hands, I've left it to Joseph to sort out, with a little help from Shira, that's what best friends are for IMO. I think it involves food and cinema, or atleast it did last time I heard, but then there was talk of squirty cream and Lois ice cream sundaes, so I really don't want to think about that!
Not quite sure what the current plans for sat / sun are yet, I need to find out whether I can crash in London on friday night after B Movie, actually better do that quick, so if not I can grab a lift up to B Movie and not have to drive :) Not sure what the plan for monday day is which may influence the plans for sunday.
So pretty much I haven't a clue ;)

Getting friends to organise birthdays is the best. Look at me - I ended up in a 5 star restaurant in Prague this year.
