I’m going to a job interview tomorrow it also involves a role play assessment first.
I’m going for the learning experience as I don’t feel I’m prepared enough. And maybe not even qualified enough.
What sort of advice would you give to someone to do well in their interview and make a good impression?
Be honest in everything, dont tell them what the think they want to hear. Just be honest.
stay positive and committed that you want this job. tell them you really want it, and confident .
they will test you if you have some doubts. but say everything that you wished to hear if as you were the employer.
say only positive things about yourself
I just picked a spot on the side of my chin. Now I have a volcano shape sticking out from the side of my chin. Oh the joy 
Make sure you have good knowledge of your prospective employer and what they do.
Don’t do it like Spud did in Trainspotting:

Haha yes I often think back to this wen I’ve got an interview
First impressions count
Research the organisation and ask 3 questions to the interviewees when asked if you have any questions.
Be confident and let your positive energy shine. I’d research the history behind the company a bit too in case the opportunity comes up to discuss that. That should impress them!
You can do it! You got this @Zoe
Thanks guys I appreciate it
I usually do three things. I dress nice and make sure I make eye contact and appear eager. It’s gotten me many jobs. And as my dad told me years and years ago, 90% of doing good at a job is attitude. If you have a good attitude towards your job and the people you work with, other people notice and it will go a long way towards your success.
Ask them questions as for why you should want to work there. Don’t only sell yourself to them, make them sell themselves to you too. It can be difficult to maintain this attitude if you’re coming from unemployment.
I have no idea what to advise. I remember when I would get asked, “What is your biggest weakness?” I would reply with, “I’m not great with people, but I’m doing Toastmasters Public Speaking Courses to improve.”
I often didn’t get the job, because I was honest. I know this, because on several occassions, I asked why I didn’t get it and the employer told me it was because of my answer to my biggest weakness. I would then reply, “Well, it looks like honestly doesn’t pay off, eh?” The person would often go silent.
I learned that honesty doesn’t get me anywhere. I also learned that neither does lying, because I ended up in jobs that were way too hard for me, because I wasn’t honest. The sad fact is that extroverts beat out introverts a lot. I’ve tried becoming an extrovert by taking courses, and reading books, but people…they’re so exhausting.
I am going to tell them I struggled with anxiety depression for a long time and I have psychosis NOS so that they understand my s hit cv
I’m going to tell them, however I’m keen for this job.
I hope they’re open-minded about psychosis and stuff and that, if you get the job, the environment is good. Lots of luck!
Thankyou Flying Swan!
Dress neat and clean. First impressions are so important.
I get really bad dandruff I hope I can keep it under control tomorrow
Hi guys.
I am not sure if I should wear subtle make up or not.
My friend says yes.
What do you guys think.
Wear make up or skip it.
