Job interview&anxiety

Postby PrincessNineTales » Thu Apr 27, 2017 8:15 pm

I just had my very first job interview this morning, and I think I did good for the most part. I feel like I could've done better though. I keep replaying a few of my failed scenarios in my head. I'll find out by Monday or Tuesday next week if I got the job or not.(they say).

Don't wait for them to call you. If you're really interested in the job, give THEM a call.

What would be the best way to ask them?

Ring them up a day or two after and politely ask the status of your application ("I was just wondering if my application was complete and if there is anything else I can provide you" is how I used to do it). If they say they hired someone else, ask them why. It's sometimes hard to listen to but the tips can be very valuable.

Thanks. I'm not worried about this whole thing anymore.
