At least you haven't got to stress about what to wear! lol
Thanks, that is exactly what I was thinking
In much the same way you wouldn't tell the girl you're chatting up that she's a backup & you're hoping someone prettier gets back to you!
I had my first interview in 10 years a while ago. I was nervous so I spoke to a HR consultant mate who said that if you’re called for interview then the employer has decided you’re qualified and could do the job. It’s an opportunity to see if you “fit” their team and that this works both ways- it’s your chance to see whether you think they’d be a good employer.
On that basis- relax, be yourself and ask as many questions as you can!
Good luck.
Employers know you (us) have the skills and experience and what they're looking for is someone to fi their team and perhaps just as importantly someone who is going to get on with the particular line manager. It's typical nowadays to have some sort of psychometric testing to see if your personality and beliefs (towards work) match theirs.
- Do you like to be managed by an autocratic management style or Laissez-Faire?
- Extrovert or Introvert?
- What personality traits would you bring to the team (see Myers-Briggs)

- What team attributes would you bring to the team (see Belbin's team roles)

I'm of the belief that if you go through all this stuff and you don't get the job then you've probably had a lucky escape! So whatever you do, don't try and blag it (unless you're desperate to get out of your current job ), just be yourself and if you get the job then you're probably going to be a good fit for their organisation and if you don't, then you probably aren't.
There would be nothing worse for you than accepting a new job and then after a few weeks realising you hate your new boss and hate the people you work with, even if you can do the job backwards.
