Interview - Anyone getting nervous yet?

[Martigan]

I have to admit, I am.

[Spin doctor]

Seconded, haven't been to an interview for a while and have no idea how to prepare for the MMI process

[goldhawkgonk]

I really haven't done enough preparation yet - there's loads of things I want to read over to freshen in my mind to be able to discuss! I'm imagining that MMI is going to involve being thrown some real curveballs so trying to think as widely as possible. Erp!

They start this week don't they? Mine's Weds after next....

[Martigan]

Yes they do start this week. Mine is next. But with my Chem exam this week and early next thats where my focus has been...

[Remus]

yep! i get butterflies in my stomach just thinking about it lol. good luck, everybody!!

[abc4589]

I try not to think about it. I can sympathize with martigan. I have coursework to hand in, too
What kind of preparation are you guys doing if you don't mind me asking?

[aliwilliams]

i'm getting kinda nervous. i have only had one interview in my entire life so not at all used to this kind of pressure. to top it off, its right in the middle of my uni exams, so my time is very stressed. but lucky for me my brothers girlfriend is at st georges so the night before she will be grilling me to make sure i'm well prepared.

I'm really nervous - I've had loads of interviews with jobs over the last few years, but I can't think how the MMI system will be? Besides there is so much riding on this.

It would interesting to hear from anyone who has experienced both a MMI and a traditional panel interview to see what the differences are...?

I was meant to attending my St Georges one this morning, but the my trains were so badly affected getting into London, it took me two hours to get to London Bridge, at which point they closed down the Tube station. After a frantic call to the admin staff they thankfully offered me another opportunity on the 26th, which is great!

Sheeeeessshh. You must have been bricking it. Not a nice experience.

Seeing as my future life depends on this interview. It's not it is worrying me a lot.

[SiCMFT]

Yep same here, absolutely bricking it!

I'm stuck asking myself "How much is too much?". As in, I want to be as prepared as possible but I don't want to regurgitate answers, and appear false or coached.

Plus with the uncertainty of MMI's I kind of feel like the whole thing is basically just going to be about winging it!

I read the examples of MMI's on the SGUL website, and one of them had to do with packing a suitcase......riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
