rationalmind: AN INTERVIEW IS NOT A DO OR DIE AFFAIR. TREATING IT AS ONE AFFECTS ONES CONFIDENCE
Few weeks to completing NYSC, airtel graduate trainee came out. Like every other applicant, I applied, did the online test and was invited for interview alongside 39 other candidates.
This time around, I had bought a white shirt which latter turned out to be my official interview attire. 
Prior to the interview, I told myself I have to get the job and there's no room for failure. I thought by so doing, I'll push myself to my limits and prepare so hard. Unfortunately, that mindset was the exact reason I got a regret mail.
When my name was called as the next person to be interviewed, I can't remember how exactly I walked to the interview room. I was so tensed and so scared of failure that when asked to introduce myself, my voice was shaking. I tried so hard to stabilise my voice but I couldn't help it.
One of the interviewers noticed and tried to calm me down. She explained to me we are just having a chat and it's nothing serious. When she noticed it wasn't working, She asked where I served. Edo state, I answered.
Wow, so you served in the same state my mum comes from? I didn't say a word. Where in Edo state did u serve? She asked. Auchi, I answered. Wow, rationalmind, can you believe my mum stays in Auchi?
At that moment, in my mind, I was like, madam, leave all these ones, just ask me wetin u wan ask make I commot for here abeg 
When she noticed I wasn't interested in the chit chat, she went ahead to interview me but of course, the interview was a disaster. I wasn't thinking.
I was asked what I'll do when I have several things to do with same deadline, nothing came to my head, I went blank. I could have simply told them I'll prioritise.
When I left the venue, I knew I had blown it up. When people told me I might be called, I just laughed cos I knew I'll never be called. My desperation to land the job took the better of me and that was my second lesson: Never to treat an interview like it's a do or die affair. At what point in one service year do u advise a corp member to start job seeking and applications |

Therock5555: I'm a Sunday school teacher and I'm gonna quit today, gonna meet my patron later today, I can't keep dying inside and Coming to laugh before my Sunday school kids Dull movement!!! Man offends you are you stop working for God! Irony....is not as if it was God who offended you oo. The funniest part is that if you don't do it, God will raised someone (who is in a deep problem than you but is willing to work for God) to do it and use that as a point of contact to solve his problems. Common sense isn't common.  |

fammo: Hello nairalanders, is it not funny and somewhat annoying how we can give good relationship advices to other people and we seem to be confused when faced with our own issues. Well I'm in that situation now and I need your help.
I am currently engaged to this lady and we have even done an introduction, we've been through the various phases of relationship together, the happy days, sad days, break up periods, make up times etc. I love her, but I'm having doubts as to whether I want to spend the rest of my life with her.
We are age mates but she looks older than I am already even before having kids. She has had to change her religion just to make the relationship work and I think I'm going through with these relationship out of pity for her sacrifices, I fear this pity would one day wear out and i'll start resenting her and myself. Should I be worried about these feelings or is it just the normal cold feets guys get before finally saying the "I Do". Pls help me out guys.
Will really appreciate if this can make front page, this is my first ever NL post. Thanks! My brother, God is watching you ooo Since October 2006 you have been on nairaland, only one topic and 206 posts!!!  Your mates who registered with you have got 175 topics and 23674 posts !!!

PrimeMinisterr: . . . . that was harsh you know. PrimeMinisterr, you get what you give. Civilized peeps converse with each other. Inasmuch as you were thinking the same way he was, you related to me in a very polite and civilized manner, it will be foolish of me to throw jabs at you just like that. But take a look at what he said. He obviously misunderstood me, you did too and anybody could be misunderstood, it's normal, but compare your replies and see the reason for my anger this hot harmattan afternoon  |
