Oh my, I feel a little bit nervous today because I have my job interview this afternoon. A very long time ago the last time I've face the interviewer and now after so many years here I am facing them!? It makes me feel uneasy today... But no matter what happen I pursue my application. If they accept me thanks, if they don't well thanks again for the new collections of experience! Wish me luck friend! thanks!

yes, that can a real nervous encounter but remember to stay clam. take a deep breath and stay compose. the most important thing is to stay confident and also looks into their eyes when responding to a question. If u are nervous, look beyond them and not into their eyes direct. like focusing on something behind them and in this way you would not be bothered by their presence. Also, you need to compose your thoughts before making a reply. It is ok to pause for a while and reply and need not reply immediately after a question is asked. Employer looks for matured and confident employee and not fast shooting quick response ones who utter reply of no substance. good luck

Oh I think that is perfectly fine that you feel nervous. Every new opportunities that you meet in your life that is a natural reaction each and every persons meet and feel. I am pretty sure that every interview would be alittle different from the other and you'll learn many things about you and the company you're applying for. I do hope that you can make it and I am pretty sure that when the time comes it you'll get the job you wanted. So keep on looking while you have not found it yet.

mods196621, Let me wish you all the best here on your interview, just do not be too focused on the end results and you should be able to let your mind relax here. There's simply no point trying to aniticpate what is ahead and which bears so much uncertainty. Just go in and be positive about it. Besides, if there is nothing worse than not being hired - who knows you might just have a better and more befitting job ahead of you. Stay and be happy all the way.

mods196621, You're welcome. Just call them to see if the schedule could be changed or not and if not just remember to cancel that slot with them. At least, it shows that you are being considerate and meticulous at the same time. Anyway, hope the next stage will be much better off and good luck again. Cheers.

Thank to your moral support my friend I'm lucky to have you all, Now I'm finished. Did not passed the first step but asked me to back on the first week of coming month. Maybe I could not. They give me a graveyard schedule which I cannot attend to do because of my poor health. Thank you very much with all my heart! God bless You!

You have no reason to be nervous about if you have prepared well enough for the interview. Just compose yourself and condition your mind that you are the person qualified for the job. Then you'll be okay. Good luck!

I have one qualification that did not passed and I need to improve it so they will give me another chance if I came back next month. I think I'm not. Thank you very much friend for the support you have given to me. May God Bless you all the way!

Oh wow a job interview can be so exciting! But you are like me as well, I get very nervous before a job interview. I guess because you are being put on the spot, and you know that it is all about you and they will be judging you the whole time you are talking with them. I believe the best thing to do is to go in their with confidence. If you don't believe you can do it, why should they believe you can do it? I think people like to see confidence in others. If you believe you can succeed, you will succeed. I always feel a little silly if I get really nervous about something, then it turns out fine and there was nothing to even be nervous about! Job interviews are great experience though, even if you don't end up getting the job. They will prepare you for interviews in the future. I think I am a little late in responding to this post though as far as wishing you luck at your interview, it looks as if you may have already been to the interview. If that's the case, how did it go? You will have to keep everyone informed as to how the interview went and if you hear anything back from them. Is this a full time job you applied for? Are you working anywhere else right now? Well whatever the case, I wish you great luck with everything you do!

good morning friend! you're right i've finished and I did not make it now maybe next month if I came back. Because they give me another chance and I have to improve first my way of communication. Anyway I'm not getting hurt about this !coz this is my first time to be interviewed by that company and they really kind too. As of now my application to them are still open. Their schedule that was given to me is broken time feeling that I cannot attend too because of my health. A graveyard is not ideal to an old lady like me. But you know, I need to go find a job to help my husband to raised up the studies of our children. And fortunately one of my friend called me and he is trying to refer me in his office for a job. I didn't stop looking for a job to earn money especially now that we have poor economy too. Now my friend thank you very much to your support morally and spiritually a big help to me darling! Thanks and God Bless You!

Have a nice day You would definitely get a good job one day or other.Don't worry.Just believe in god and yourself.
