[yelenots]

Thank for everyones help last week with advice on writing my CV and covering letter......just thought I'd let you know I have been shortlisted and have got an interview next week!! Thank you :-) x

Good luck with that, it's a tough time out there and jobs are few and far between so find out as much as you can about that job and practice with friends or family over and over especially if you're out of practice so you go in fully prepared, confident and hopefully land the job.

They will probably ask you scenario questions to help them identify what abilities you have that match their needs, things like, can you describe a time when you handled a difficult customer, or, explain how you handled a difficult situation with another employee, things along those lines, you need to prepare some examples that would fit their company.

Thank you.... I'm panicing already!!

Yelenots how long have you been out of work and what is the position? Also there are lots of "interview techniques and interview questions and answers" on google which helped me greatly when I was unemployed. Like I said find out everything you cab about the company and get different people to interview you till your technique is highly honed and it will be a breeze.

Hi, its a admin job in a school office - I already work part time at a pirmary school and this is for a full time position!

[dotty.]

I would expect them to ask you a question about prioritising and office politics lol

[anneasquith]

good luck

[yelenots]

There's a test too :(

[dotty.]

te test will just be to confirm your practical ability , the killer questions seperate you from the other applicants and so focus on that.
