7 thoughts we have all had in a job interview
THE JOB INTERVIEW. It’s never, ever an easy process – but for some of us it’s downright torture.
If you’re that way inclined, here are some familiar thoughts you might recognise:
1. “I wish I didn’t wear this outfit”
Every time.
2. “There are probably 17 typos on the first page of my CV”
Should have re-read it a few more times.
3. “I’m making weird amounts of eye contact”
4. “Am I dangerously underqualified for this role?”
The doubts. The crippling doubts about basic abilities.
5. “I can’t believe I didn’t research this job more”
6. “I am absolutely winging this”
You’re shocked at your new found ability to come up with nonsense on the spot.
7. “How can I tell everyone this went well?”
As you leave, all thoughts turn to how this can be spun into “the best interview I’ve ever done.”
