Mechanical Drafting and Design. I will have to measure a gear shaft with calibers and draw it up with Cad software for the interview. ( I am much more comfortable with 3D software, this job uses 2D) I am a little rusty with AutoCAD. I have been using Solidworks and Solidedge...The 2d part is free after you create the model.

AutoCAD is cumbersome. But so is not having a job :chargrined:

Thanks, I appreciate the link.

I think I will just tell him my weakness is Job interviews...:icon_eek:

Actually, that’s actually not bad at all. It's work related, and you obviously are working on it by being in the interview. You could even expand on it even more by asking the interviewer that if by chance to don’t get the job, would it be okay to contact him/her to see where you might have had any weaknesses in the interview process. It would show that you are actively working to overcome the weakness.

I have been looking thru my portfolio. (after I dusted it off) I am pretty damn impressed with myself, (If I do say so )
Did I draw that stuff? Yea, I did.

I will just go, and what happens, happens. I will try not to stress about it. Thank God for unemployment insurance.

Now, off to finish laundry and look for shoes that puppy did not chew up.

I am wat I am..

ll brave then.. I am so nervous.

No ((NN"S) required. I am worried about what clothes, I am worried about my age.
I am thinking of putting a mud mask on, but my luck, I will draw out a long lost pimple on the end of my nose. I need a haircut, it is so long, and I am not one to really do anything with it. All bangs and shaggy. But I like shaggy dammit. I can get away with it, if I blow dry with a round brush.

Then again, why should I really care, I am quite cute they way I am.

And besides, if I get all dressed up for interview... that will change and I will show up all kinds of like me. Sure, I will throw a jacket over jeans.. i have all kinds of dress pants and tops, but I wear them with sneakers. Or get annoyed with my hair and put it up messy without thinking about it... until I look around and see all other women clomping around in high heels and makeup . Eh.

I could do all of that, and I have. But now, it is about work and the job.
I am used to working with all men. The profession that I am in. Ya have to get dirty and crawl around and measure to be able to draw those things sometimes.

I am worried that unemployment will pay more then actually having a job.. I know! Horrible way to think!

Sorry for the latest rant..., I am just very nervous.

Long hair pulled into a side ponytail (low, not sticking out from the side of your head) is very chic looking and easy to do!

Great suggestion for hair, DanaJean.
Dress basic- neutral colors, nothing flashy. One piece of nice jewelry. If all you have is sneakers- use black if available. During the interview you can ask about the dress code. Then you can go from there, when you get the position! Deep breath- positive thoughts. Manifest-- this job is mine.
