Something’s not right

Not Coping

Not Coping

Hey everyone how are you all?

@RiverSeal @Shaz51 @NatureLover @tyme @Former-Member @Eve7 @Former-Member @amber22 @Jynx @FloatingFeather

I'm not doing great at all today. I'm feeling down. I also keep beating myself up for everything and feel like I'm just failing. I need a break from everything. It's getting so hard that I don't know how to keep going anymore especially since I can't talk to anyone around me as they are leaving me or don't understand.

Hope you don’t mind me reaching out I just really need a chat and though I could come on here and vent and talk for a bit.

Thank you

@Birdofparadise8

Congratulations on the job interview, my past experience includes 10 years of working in HR and Recruitment so can provide some support in terms of interview preparation.

Use the STAR Technique to answer interview questions, and have past workplace examples to talk about your experience. Study the position description as well to know the role and what person they are looking for.

You were previously in your last role for 18 months so no doubt you have some success stories to talk about.

Hope it all goes well, please keep us updated.
