Well do you think I might get hired? im kinda nervous...?

I had an interview today at a podiatrist office and I found it in the newpaper. Well it says you can apply 3 days- tues, thurs, or fri.


I applied the first chance which was tuesday. I got called for an interview and went today. I felt so nervous and it definitely showed I KNOW!! its so embarassing and i feel like i cant talk and give the right answer .. its like being put on the spot for me and I am just not good with that. Well anyway, i am going to school for x-ray and i told them that and she said that sometimes i might have to help give patients x-rays!! i mean thats so cool and thats what i am going to school for and it would be nice if i got the job but i just feel like i totally bombed it! I know i wasnt confident as much as i should have been but i smiled and tried the best i could at answering her questions. I feel like there will be someone else they like better b/c they showed more confidence. But i feel like i have more knowlege in xray and medical. wat do u think?

Well do you think I might get hired? im kinda nervous...?
Congrats on getting an interview. :) If I were you, I would of at least of been prepared with answers to the obvious interview questions. It would of made you look more confident and that you want the job. Good luck!
Reply:If you answered their questions with honesty, and showed that you had the required knowledge, then you are GOLDEN. I have come to learn that in the interview process, the majority of employers are looking for intillegent, talented, yet HUMBLE individuals. Just because someone displays what you would call confidence doesn't mean they are gonna land the position. In fact...a lot of times confidence can be mistaken for arrogance, and noone wants an arrogant @sshole working for them. Besides...any good employer knows that you gotta start somewhere...and above all else, if you don't get the job...don't look at this as an interview bombed, but as a lesson learned. HOPE THIS HELPS.
Reply:Your enthusiasm for the job should make up for lack of confidence. Interviews are difficult for many of us. Good luck.
Reply:There is no way to know. I depends on the person doing the interview and who the other applicants were. I've seen people with tons of experience be passed over because the person was over-qualified and I've seen people who had no qualifications get the job because they shared interests with the person doing the interview... No way to tell or guess.
