I have a technical interview tomorrow morning for a job after 18 months and I feel like I’m going to fail. I have no idea why though because I’ve been damn good at my jobs for 20 years. I just have a 6 month old that I watch 5 days a week, work a fast food job the other 2 days, a spouse that is recovering from cancer, a disease that the chemo had on him, and now an appendicitis. I NEED a job, I am running through money faster than I can make it. I’m worried that all of these pressures put more stress on me which translates somehow to my interviews.
You’ve got this. I wish I had good advice or something to offer but I’ll drop this This has helped like one person ever besides me and I recognize it’s a little ridiculous but I play pretend with myself that it already happened and I’m replaying it. The outcome is predetermined. I’m just going through the motions and doing my best for practice. Makes me feel less pressure and more at ease for things I can’t realistically prepare for more.
