Have an interview for a job that I really, really would like to get this afternoon. [Well, I think I would like to work there. It seems like a good opportunity] As such I am currently a nervous wreck. My tummy has been invaded by butterflies, my hands which are usually arid are now sweaty clumsy things and I would like nothing more then the interview to be over and done with. I have never been good at interviews, I never know what to say, how to act and have never mastered the finer points of selling myself. Especially when it comes to those dreaded questions that the potential employers seem to love asking. "Why would you be good for this company and what makes you the ideal candidate for this particular position?" Umm...squeak... mumble...mumble... lose ability to speak coherently. It is usually at this point that everything goes down hill. GAH. Must remember to breathe, to remain focused and not let my nervousness get the better of me. Perhaps I shouldn't have had that second cup of coffee today. Well I better go and get meself ready. [EEEP!]
