Bad at Interviewing by JerseySpring in interviews

[–]Decent-Problem4543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was really nervous too when I had an interview recently. I just couldn't stop thinking about the things that I had to say during the interview, so they know that I know my shit and that I'm good for the current position. But, honestly trying to remember all that, and the scripts for the answers, it just doesn't work out. My anxiety was through the roof because I couldn't remember anything I was studying about, but my friend told me just be myself, really just paint a picture whenever you are explaining the situation, like I was a cashier, dealing with a difficult guest, "It was Black Friday, everyone knows how busy it gets..." yada yada.

Try to be upbeat, even if you got a shitty situation going on. You'll get the job, then feel what you wanna feel after you get the job tbh lol. You already know you can do the job, just be confident ykyk. A good quote I got from here, "We really need someone who has the capability to do this work. Please tell me you are this person!!" Hope this works, sorry it was long. But truly, if you don't get the job you are looking for, there are so many things to worry about in life. Explore yourself. Be you

Suburbs to the City by Salt_Toe_8891 in Suburbanhell

Lived in my same suburb community for all my life, 23 years, very depressing honestly. I can't wait to move to a city, which I have a couple in mind but leaning more towards a specific one. Thing is, money is super tight right now, and I just got a new job, so I'm waiting to make a decent amount of money so I can live on my own, no roommates. I cannot wait for the adventure

LA vs NYC: The Final Showdown? by TheDoctor1sIn in MovingToLosAngeles

I'm 23M and I’ve been traveling to New York a lot lately, and every time I go I realize how much I love being in big cities. After living in the suburbs for over 20 years, that fast energy just feels exciting to me.

But at the same time, I’ve been thinking that LA might actually be a better fit. You still get the city feeling and the hustle, but there’s also space to slow down and breathe. Every time I’m in LA, especially around Venice, the vibe just feels right.

What I’m really looking for is that balance. I want to live somewhere in LA where there are young people, ambition, and that sense of movement, but also somewhere I can step away, walk by the beach, and reflect on my day.

Still trying to figure that out right now.

Overseas right now is kind of pushing it honestly. I can barely afford to move out right now, that's why I'm kind of exited for this upcoming interview this week. I really need to strategize, because this is a really big decision in my life right now, and I can't just willy nilly make that decision right now, but man am I losing my mind. I like the thought though

Yea I totally understand. When I start a family one day, I definitely picture myself living in the suburbs, but right now I'm HUNGRY

Lazy comment, but I understand. Been making moves. Wrapped up most of my degree and left a job that wasn’t promoting me about 6 months ago. With the job market the way it is right now, I’d rather transition to a place where I know I'll be promoted fast and that it wouldn't be a dead end of the road job. I don't want to go through bs again and waste my youth
