So I've got that interview tomorrow, I'm scared.
I'm going to just sit there farting and sweating and no say a word, it's going to be awkward as hell.
How do you explain not working for the last 4 years?

Just make up stories about working full time during those 4 years

for reference just look for companies or stores that went bankrupt since then and give them the contact info of some close relative.
if they ask for more detailed info (like tax receipts) then just tell them you were working under the table

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 5 16:07:11 2011 No.7831752 One shot of booze before you go to take the edge off.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 5 16:10:10 2011 No.7831762 The problem is that what THEY want are people who value their job over their own lives, and anything else. They are probably not going to like someone who values religion that much to spend 4 years on it.

>>7832143
I'm not, I just have to go to interviews they set up for me as part of my benefit conditions.
>>7832151
Thanks for the encouraging words.
When I was in College I had a part time job in a fruit and veg shop, we had to wear purple tabards.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 5 17:24:10 2011 No.7832213 >>7832192 Sounds dreadful, which supermarket is this interview for?

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 5 17:30:14 2011 No.7832270 >>7832245 People may try to start conversation with you, if it's not a big name retailer. As you say you have no social skills, good luck.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 5 17:36:42 2011 No.7832314 >>7832270 It's fairly large and I'm pretty sure it's open interviews in front of other people, I am petrified.
