Hey! Don't give up! Was it your first teams interview? I had something similar and it really put me off that I was on camera and could see myself! Most of the time when we feel like we've done terrible we normally haven't.I had a job interview last Monday, it was online via teams on video which I found really difficult. In the past I have been ok in interview situations, am chatty, good eye contact etc but online was just horrible. I want the job so badly but I feel I messed up. They said I would hear end of the week/beginning of next and it’s now Tuesday and not heard anything. Assuming now I haven’t got the job and they are waiting for the person they’ve chosen to accept and sign their contract before rejecting others including me. So gutted and can’t stop playing it over hating myself. I despise my current job and I’m utterly miserable, cry every day, no longer see a point in life/don’t want to be here anymore but especially with covid now it feels like I’ll never get out of there
I am so sorry it was stressful and you're unhappy in your current gig. Maybe ask someone to have a look over your CV and LinkedIn? And if you haven't heard anything, you are perfectly within your right to write in to enquire what is the status of the role currently, to thank them for having given you the opportunity to speak with them, and to reinforce that you are still interested and if there are any questions about your candidature you are more than happy to chat.I had a job interview last Monday, it was online via teams on video which I found really difficult.

If you have another one, maybe try putting another window over yourself?Hey! Don't give up! Was it your first teams interview? I had something similar and it really put me off that I was on camera and could see myself! Most of the time when we feel like we've done terrible we normally haven't.
They still might be mulling over the candidates!
Its awful being in a job you dislike and you want to get out so badly! Dont give up!!
You could say that due to personal reasons you don't feel that you could give it the right level of commitment at the moment?Sorry to go slightly off topic but im after any advice for work related issue. Basically i've been offered to begin a qualification at work its around 18 months in total and i don't know how to decline it gracefully without making it obvious i intend to leave. I have something lined up for the spring but its not something i wanted to disclose until the required 1 month notice period. I feel like whatever way i turn it down it will make it awkward at work. For info i'm in a entry level type role and i've been there under 1 year.
First of all, well done for getting this far! They clearly think you’ve the skills they’re looking for otherwise they wouldn’t be interviewing you.I'm resurrecting this thread ... hope no one minds.
I've got an interview next week for a part-time sales assistant job. My first job interview in 15 years, so I'm very rusty.
I've been researching typical questions asked by the company on websites like Indeed (I'm interviewing at a charity shop), but there's so many that I'm tying myself in knots now trying to remember answers to them all
I've been out of paid work for a long time due to illness, so that's worrying me too. I have done stuff in those years, like created a small business where I sell from home, and done volunteering online. I'm worried that I won't remember the experience I have from previous employment, for questions like tell me when you delivered good customer service, or tell me when you've used you initiative and changed something to make something better. I'm rubbish at coming up with answers on the spot.
Anyone have any tips? Especially if you've not interviewed for a long time?
