How well do you prepare?

I'm like a professional interviewee lol. One day my husband was trying to give me tips and I told him - I've HAD over 40 jobs since my first one at 16. That's AT LEAST 40 interviews and you know I didn't get jobs on only one interview.

What do you do?

Have you identified your transferable skills? I'm asking that because if you could put those out there in the convo then maybe you won't get so hung up on specifics of past jobs.

Also, there are plenty of websites that will give you the most common interview questions. If you can prepare for those as well, it's not all about past work experience. Or at the very least it's focused on certain aspects of your work experience.

Preparation is key. I don't know you from a hole in the wall and the reason I came to this thread is because MY memory sucks pretty bad as well. My GUESS is that you're probably really nervous as well. That's why I think if you could prepare some answers for the basic questions (tell me about a problem that you had and how did you solve it? What is your greatest weakness, etc.) then you'd be a little clearer for when they ask for specifics.

Again, I don't know you and I know zero about Schizoaffective or the cause of your memory problems. I'm just trying to give you tips that worked for me. If you want more help PM me. Hang in there.
