What are you passionate about?
Please explain why you would be an excellent candidate for xxx?
NO, YOU EXPLAIN WHY YOU ARE ASKING BULLSHIT QUESTIONS LIKE THIS FOR A SHITTY HOURLY POSITION.
So, I had that interview on Monday, and I thought I did okay. I apparently impressed the guy because I knew what the mother sauces were, (I blanked on espagnole but I remembered after a few panicked seconds ;_;) I know how to make hollandaise, risotto, and other apparently impressive stuff (all things I had to make at the awesomest job ever, sob). There was a definite look of pleasant surprise on his face. But, he said that they have a two interview hiring process. :/
And, I was making nervous small talk with the hostess, another guy came in for a job interview and she said he was the fourth person to come in for an interview that day. ;_______; And then I didn't hear back at all Tuesday so I convinced myself they're not going to hire me, and spent all day in bed, rereading Arrows of the Queen (whyyyyyyyyyy it has always been my least favorite Valdemar book), and hating myself and feeling like a failure and just. God. So today I once again pulled myself together, and came back to the library to fill out more applications, and take more bullshit assessments. Why is this so hard. :( And I really cannot face the thought of going back to the hellmouth to collect my final paycheck without having another job already. argh. (But I will, I just. hate it.)
ETAAAAAAAAAAAAA
OH MY GOD OH MY FUCKING GOD, LITERALLY JUST NOW AS I WAS FILLING OUT MORE APPLICATIONS AND BITCHING ABOUT HOW STUPID THEY ARE, I GOT A CALLBACK TO THE PLACE I INTERVIEWED AT ON MONDAY.
THEY DON'T EVEN WANT TO INTERVIEW ME AGAIN, I AM HIRED!!!!!!!!!
Downside, it starts at $8.00 p/hr, however I have lived on that before (and at part time, too) and in any case, I am pretty sure I can expect at least one raise this year. Motherfuckin' yay!

And now it's time for more anxiety and self doubt as I question whether I am actually qualified for this job, wah wah :(((((
