RE: First job interview on Tuesday
Good for you, it is oh-so-easy to take a dead end job and slip in to a life of unfulfilled mediocrity. To learn a skill and actually put it to use and try and improve your lot in life, marks you out as somebody who is gonna go somewhere.
Remember when you have your interview that it is a 2 way street, you are checking if they are a good fit with you as well as vice-versa, they are gonna be hiring someone who has spent time on himself, learning a craft and so on, YOU will be of great value to them as much as the job will be for you.
Do not be afraid to decide this first attempt is not for you if the company does not seem to be in alignment with your vision and ethical beliefs. There will be many more interviews I am certain, you are going to be working in an arena where there will be many jobs needing to be filled, this area is the future, right?
Congratulations on getting this chance, at worst you are gaining valuable knowledge of interviewing and trying to get through the door of the industry you desire to be involved with. At best, who knows?
Go and rock it dude, remember they are lucky to have you sitting across the desk from them offering them the chance to be able to hire you!
Wow man, thanks for the kind words and good advice! I will take good use of them :) You are like engagement lvl 9000+ haha.
I will keep in mind that I am not the one who is being examined but as you wrote it is a 2.way street.
Haha yeah I often joke that commenting is literally my only superpower.
Yeah exactly what ya said man, remember there is value sitting both sides of the table!
The very best of luck 🙂
