From that, I hope to lead onto Graphic Design or Multimedia, I'm not sure. (Visual arts is from year 10 to 12 so that's year 11 to year 13 in the English system, because the Portuguese start one year later, and at the end of year 12, I'll be 18) Anyway, how is the first interview? Scary? Nerve-racking?

Replies SimplisticComplexity Posted at 9:43 pm on Dec. 31, 2008 Oh yeah, it's definitely nerve-wracking.  The first interview, typically, you don't know what to expect or how to act and you don't have any interview skills, and that adds quite a bit of stress to it.  It's even worse for people who are shy (like me).  I was sick to my stomach on my first interview, somehow I managed to land the job, though.  It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it's definitely not one of my favorite experiences.  Good luck on yours, I find it helps to read internet articles on how to prepare for an interview, and I also find that having a mock interview with a friend beforehand can also help.
