    Default job interview....

    well i had my biggest interview to date yesterday to work on the railway as a new direction for me as i wont be going back to driving, i must of been a bit out of touch because i had no idea i had to do an exam when i got there, also a drugs and alcohol test is to come , yesterdays test i had to fill in each section within six mins, and move onto the next, and the questions were maths and stuff to catch you out, maths not being my strong point,
    once that part was done i was interviewed by two people in a room that looked like the board room from the Apprentice, quite scary stuff, and got to wait untill tommrow to see if i got the job!
    is this what all interviews are like as ive never worked for a proper firm before??
