Well done! It's wonderful to see that you got the job. I've dealt with similarly paralysing anxiety issues so I know how tough it must have been. I hope you enjoy working there!

I hope you did well hun and get the job :smile:.
Congrats! :h:
The only interview where I was successful getting the job I wore jeans and a hoody and just talked about my physics degree and dissertation (vastly irrelevant, it is a production line job where I spend a lot of time making cardboard boxes :tongue:) and talked about cycling as the interviewer also cycled. Was the most informal thing ever.

I now spend most of the working day wishing I was unemployed again :indiff: At least I am being paid to be miserable I guess as apposed to doing it for free or getting in student debt.

Anyway well done MM :smile: Those group interviews sound terrifying.

Aww oh dear :redface: Haha it was actually fine, I just really, really tried to seem happy and excited :lol: And I was like "I HAS LOADS OF EXPERIENCE IN RETAILS :ahee:"

I'll never forget that call, I was on the toilet and my mum started banging on the door like, "MARIAN, PHONE!!!" I was like "Is it ringing?:eek:" And she was like "YES IT'S FOR YOU!" So I was like ... crap, panic panic, had to dash out half way through my wee to answer it :rofl:
