I just had the biggest job interview of my life. I would just like some of your feedback on some things I remember:
1. I made some jokes. Like, when they asked my biggest weakness, I said "The temptation is to say that I work just too hard!" and they both laughed and said "We hate them answers!". I also replied "getting the coffee" when asked what task I would least enjoy. I wasn't trying to be funny, I was just nervous!
2. I kept noticing that they kept smiling at each other. I don't know if it was because they thought I was impressive, or because I was rambling on. When I'm nervous, I ramble!
3. My interview was supposed to start at 12, but didn't start until 12.40ish. So I assume the persons before me (or someones along the line) over ran. I can't quite remember how long mine lasted, but it felt much shorter. Was this because they realised I wasn't right for it straight away, or because they got everything they needed to know?
Saying all that, I do feel I impressed them (at some points), whilst whipping out my knowledge of monetary policy ideas, and international relations.
So what do you all thing? Did it go well? Badly? I know there's nothing I can do about it now, but I can't get it out of my head.
There's really no right answer I suppose, but what do you think?
