Last year I had my first job interview and blew it. My brother had got me a job interview for a security guard position at ford field. My mom and brothers kept giving me advice before going to the interview. Telling me what to do, what to say, look confident, wear something decent, smile and other stuff. After they got through giving me advice it only made me nerves.
So I went to the job interview. Waited for my turn to be up next. Then when the guy was ready to interview me I went shake he's hand and greeted him. So now we was face to face and he started asking me the questions. The more questions he's was asking the more nerves I was getting. I was trying hard to seem professional but it just wasn't something I was use too. I couldn't find the right words to say and I lied about some stuff. I remember some of the stuff I was saying he was marking down on he's paper.
Then I got to the point and said I blew it, sorry for wasting your time. He laughed said it was ok he was nerves when he first had to do a job interview. He was giving me advice before I left if I never got this job. Saying try to get a suit, and practice speaking when your at home. Then he said he'll call me and let me know if I got the job. So I waited for weeks to see if they would call and they didn't. So I assume I didn't get the job so I left my phone on the table. Then went upstairs to go to sleep.
After I woken up I check my phone and they did call. I called them back to see if I got the job, and they never answered the phone. I got kinda pissed that day. But I quickly got over it knowing I didn't really want to be a security guard anyway.
