I had an interview for the job of my dreams last week.

A job and position that I feel I would fit so perfectly and it would fit so perfectly in my life as well. I spent so many years in school, so much money, never really knowing my exact place in the career world. I learned about this niche in my profession and it’s just right up my alley. I know I could bring a lot of the table.

Anyway, I’m very qualified for the job. But I suck at interviews. I clam up. I get awkward.

I’ve been going over and over my answers and my follow up “thank you email” since the interview and while it didn’t seem terrible I just don’t know.

I might have even spelled the HR woman’s name wrong in my follow up email and I’m too afraid to even look. Like….why do I do this to myself? I overthink so badly that I make rookie mistakes out of nerves.

I’m probably way overthinking, but the company isn’t fast at communicating back. In fact, they interviewed me last year and never even told me I didn’t get the position. So I’m afraid silence is bad. Maybe not. But uhhh 😵‍💫😬🙈

Thank you for reading. I’m going to go overthink some more. 👋
