Default Got a interview tomorrow

After 6 Years at my current place I've decided enough is enough and decided to move on.

Is it normal to feel nervous and scared of taking a risk moving on, initially I'll be earning less than I do now but I'm training in a more skilled section of my job (domestic > commercial)

Oh with the added bonus Of not working weekend so I can get my forest season ticket next year

Good luck in the interview. As ever, being yourself usually scores best.

Although in Antc's case................................




Only kidding - good luck and if your interviewed by a woman don't let her catch you looking at her breasts.

I have just done this mate, started new job on Monday, had been in previous job for 12 years! im like a fish out of water the now, but trying to ride the storm as i know its going to be worth it in the long run.
I keep reminding myself why i moved and blocking out the need for the "comfort zone".

Good luck

Good luck!

You are bound to be asked if you have any questions so think of something, strongly recommend you do not ask about sick pay!

I am sure you know about the company, have a look at their website that is usually a good place to find a question.

Take a copy of your CV in case they do not have it to hand.

Good luck mate but there is always a yin and yan. The good is you may get a better job in the long term
The bad is you are a forest supporter

Good luck on the job. You'll need a pay rise if we get promoted. Let's hope Billy sorts the boys out.

Form isn't great, but the other results around us haven't hurt. Late surge towards second if we play McGugan from the start.
