Sleep and eat well. And don't stress it. Interviews are noone's hobby (at least not when it refers to a job). You'll do fine GG.

Re: Promotion
I didnt get the promotion. apparently if there had been another position i would of got it, but i was up against people who had been there a minimum of 8 years...ive only been there 8 months... so expericance beat me sadly.
i'll keep trying tho. a bit of a dissapointment i really wanted it. but i was even up against my mum in the end who stepped down from a manager. and well yeah. not the easiest compeition.
im trying to stay positive. i think when i get back home (still on holiday atm) it'll hit me more. but i'll have to see what happens i guess

Re: Promotion
You know, GG, you should be proud of yourself anyway. To be up for a promotion in such a short time is such a Tribute to you, really! It shows you are a GREAt worker and are held in high regard. I would be celebrating anyway!

You are welcome! Though I have known you for a short time, I believe in you and your capabilities just by your posting; you will be promoted or do great things with your life, I just know it!

gg,
Sorry, that I'm late in replying to this and didn't get that promotion.
I'm with you on interviews as well. Wish it was the same where I'm currently volunteering.
Thank you.
