Got another Interview

in Work & Study
I just got a phone call today from this lady offering me a job. This girl at college had put my name down as she couldn't take the job. Anyway the job is in town but I have to go for an interview tomorrow in Edinburgh. I am so scared because I don't know Edinburgh that well and I am sure that I will get lost. I have to do a typing test and another computer test. Am so scared. Sorry just had to tell everyone my good news :D

    Congratulations!

    First of all - don't worry about getting lost, just make sure you set off in plenty of time and ask for directions if you get stuck. I know Edinburgh reasonably well as I have lived there for 4 years - so if you want to PM me the street your going to I'll see if I can help you :)

    And don't worry about the tests, they just want to find out what level you're at so they don't have to train you in things you already know.

    Good luck, and let us know how it goes :)

    You could also use www.multimap.com - type in the postcode and it will pull up a map of the area. Print it out and take it with you.

    Hope this helps!

    George Street is very easy to find - it runs parallel to Princes Street and most people should know where it is if you get really lost!

    Good luck for tomorrow and don't worry, just be yourself and be confident!

    Just remember if you don't like it, it's only temporary, and if you do, you've found something you like and you've got experience in it when you look for something permanent.
