Hi I was just looking for a encouragement or just a vent. I was made redundant immediately without notice in February with no pay when my company went bust, and I’ve been looking for work ever since. I had a job interview yesterday for a company I really liked the sound of and a job I really wanted, one of the interviewers when she met me gave quite a stern hostile impression from the start, the questions were a bit strange and threw me off as the were asking me detailed questions about a role I had 7 years ago. I felt the hostility as she just seemed annoyed when I was talking and like I had to prove myself hugely rather than a mutual respect type on conversation. I felt all the pressure of the last few months and I just started crying and couldn’t really hold it together the whole of the rest of the time. I had also travelled up early that morning as the interview was in a different city, 3 hour commute and came straight from the station so that probably didn’t help. I still feel a bit mortified but when I look back the attitude of the interview was definitely off and it might not be the place for me. I had also told them about travel issues which is why I had to come straight from the station that day, all previous trains cancelled the day before due to an emergency.
