    Indeed and that's the polite version. Shame the mods and admin condone this crap.

      My concern and frustration is that this was the first sniff of any role and I cocked it up. Probably being a little harsh on myself but have nothing else at all on the horizon...

      Onwards and upwards! Rising on stepping stones of your dead self to higher things, and all that

        Agreed.

          I know, a Rayburn would have been more fitting.

              Needless to say, didn't get the role (local and top notch rate) - Feel bit deflated as my one chance at the moment to secure a role

              I shall keep looking, probably have a break today and over the weekend, fresh again next week. Any inspirational words welcome...
              I really wouldn't be too tough on yourself. I have had some awful interviews for jobs I really wanted. But I do find that I will get a role out of every 2 or 3 interviews. So don't let it bother you.

              Also even if you had given a great interview doesn't mean you would have got the job. I have a few over the years where I thought I was great only to be told no. Usually because somebody else had already worked there and they knew them.

              On the flip side I have had some bad interviews and got the role. You never can tell. So keep at it and sure you will get one soon enough.

                    You're correct on that one. I do all my baking in a Rayburn.

                      You're correct on that one. I do all my bullshiit lying on CUK.
