Sort of. I kinda need to stay til May 2nd for this team gym thing- cant pull out of it. I had my interview thing today. If I get that, fine. I'll apply for a couple jobs in Germany for the summer, and see what they say. Someone offered to put me up for as long as I like, and said she'd help me find a job too. Lovely.
Today;
10 applicants and 2 interviewer type people. 3 of the applicants were from my old work. Anyway, we were shown a presentation about the company, the job, then asked to introduce ourselves. I totally didnt know what to say. The presentation guy did his- "I worked at a,b and c for 10 years, then came to work here and have gone up the ranks to become senior manager high flying superstar etc", and then next lady was from old work, and she'd been manager of a perfumery department for years and stuff. Then me.
"Um, Im lauren. I left school last year, and I've been working in Arnotts too since then. And I like gymnastics. A lot." *look panicked*
Then there were "topic discussion" in which i SOOOO hoped the war would pop up, cause I had so much to say about it, but no. Views on "Im a celebrity...", Funding for Inverness football club (*yawn*), and House Husbands."
I said about one sentence about house husbands, "that while I wouldnt put up with them doing nothing, I wouldnt be comfortable with them making my dinner, then bringing me my slippers, doing the hoovering and ironing, etc. Sharing the work, would be fine, but not..." *HUGE silence...*
Then personal interviews. A few questions. But not the "why do you want this job" one I usually panic at, because I havent prepared for it. That i HAD prepared for this time.
I saw him write something on my CV and lay it face down. He said "But you always get out of interviews, and then you.."
"..think Oh No! I wish i'd said that!" I finished.
He picked up my CV again, and wrote something else on it.
"I think we'll be seeing each other again, Lauren."
Ooh!
If I get it and like it, great. (tho there were 9 others, 8 of whom had degrees and/or years proper jobs experience.)
If not, I'll run away to Germany. Tho I dont know how long its worth looking for a job here, whilst planning to leave. |
