I have a job interviewed scheduled for this coming Sunday… it would be done remotely.
This nutritionist sent me an email.
I am nervous!! 
I haven’t done a legit interview in a long time…!
What if they see me and think I’m crazy…
Do you have any suggestions to prepare for it??
I think the First question they would ask is about the time gap in your resume, maybe say you spent the time trying to do something that doesn’t have any effects on your resume like trying to go pro in gaming
@swordiebrom Surprisingly I don’t have much blank on my resume…
I did have like a year open, but I would say it’s because I was working short term at various odd jobs and not relevant to the job I’m seeking.
It when I was lost in psychosis being homeless… I had like 3 jobs during time. Believe it or not.
Anyways I sort of fidgeted with the timeframe of employment, especially after I’ve moved to Japan. But they won’t find that out 
In my country, they will actually call your previous company to check stuff. My case manager told me to never mention that I have psychosis
Yeah… but I doubt that they will check the one in Japan… it’s in the US
I agree with your case manager… saying that you were psychotic once wouldn’t benefit us I suppose…
The company wouldn’t want to hire a nutcase if they could settle for a normal person
Be honest and authentic, and don’t be shy about promoting your strong points.
Thanks i definitely need to bullet point my strengths. I’m going to have a brainstorming session tonight
Remember your value and that you want the job to be a good fit as much as they do. Try to be positive and upbeat, earning an interview is a high compliment, it means they are very interested in you.
Thank you Leafy, having difficulty keeping my energy level high atm 
the interview is in a day… yikes
I have blown a lot of good interviews but I just accepted a new job. Going to move far away from family and be by myself a while.
You landed the interview, The job is practically in the bag. Be genuine, be kind, be alert
How do you feel about moving away from family? Does it worry you?
I will make a good impression! 
I’m going to get a hair cut now to prepare now
very nice. It’s always good to look trimmed and polished. It boosts your confidence.
Good luck @Abise !
I got a job about 4 months ago. My interview was over the telephone. My advice would be to try and read the person interviewing you and adapt to their personality. That requires you to think on your feet.
So far example when I was being interviewed the guy doing the interview came across as annoyed and in a bad mood because he had to do over 300 phone interviews for 20 some odd positions. I picked up on how he was feeling and realized from his perspective he was doing the same repetitive boring task over and over again (asking every candidate the same basic questions) so I did my best to make the interview into a pleasant conversation. I think that made all the difference because I had no relevant experience for this job. At the end he told me I was one of the top candidates and I ended up getting hired. If the remote interview you’re doing is over zoom pay attention to their facial expressions and focus on areas that seem to make them happy or interested in you.
There will probably be questions you were not expecting, those ones are hard. I was asked why I wanted to work for this particular company and I stumbled because I didn’t know much about the company, but other than that one question I did pretty good.
I’m going to research into the company… but keeping convos seems challenging… I hope I can talk with the flow as I normally do, but skeptical since I’ve fallen ill
Should I mention that I am recovering from a mental illness? And me applying is part my process? Or is it not their business?
