I am going for a job interview for a position as Trainee Audiologist. Its a very fancy 2nd interview (the fist had a hard IQ test) up in Wilmslow (300 miles away, lucky they are paying for travel) I am very nervous, but If I get though, this will be the lucky break I have been waiting for. wish me luck

Next week 8 hour round trip for a 50 min interview....(thats halfway across the country and back) but it was very interesting. they asked me what my favorite TV prog was... (and you know me and TV....) I said I was too busy for TV, but if I could, would watch the new `Dr Who` well that is something both pop and the delight of interlectuals, isnt it?? the rest of the interview was very interesting. I was not as scared as I thought.

Oh, so sorry to hear it. From the speed of the answer, they'd made up their mind at the interview, or even before. So, count it as experience at being interviewed. Best of luck for the next one!

Your right, they decided the next day I have written a letter asking why, and saying i did think I had the skills for the job. I enclosed a copy of some reaerch I did for the local homeopathist to show my scholarly abilities...I think that may be laying it on a bit thick, but its worth a try.

I am so sorry Tengu, it is obviously their loss.

It's probably too late, unless their first pick refuses, in which case a professional "thanks for your consideration, and keep me in mind should a similar position become available" will leave a good feeling all around. Often, they'll choose based on the resumes, or friend, or whatever, even before the interviews, but still have to do the interviews for policy reasons. Shame, really, but that's how it works. I once went through two rounds of interviews, was told "no thanks", and then saw the same job posted, typo for typo, on the boards a week later.
