22 yr old university student

Had a virtual interview today where I couldn't even answer soft-ball questions beyond just a couple brief, rambling sentences. I was so stressed out my eyes were getting red and misty.

I have two more interviews lined up in my field for summer-student positions, if I fuck them up I'm probably going to be unemployed.

I tried beta blockers but they don't seem to really help. What do I do?

why do you want to be wageslave so bad?

i don't normally condone the use of alcohol or stimulants, but if you need to get through a single interview & nothing else, that can be a good one-time use for low-dose adderall
it might make you extremely anxious though, so be careful if you're not sure how you'll react to it

best thing to do to prepare is make a bunch of bullet point questions you might be asked
research interviews on reddit etc for similar positions/interviews & see what questions people got asked
research the company a bit
think of some stories to tell

running through the interview in your head several times until you're bored will make it much less daunting, i bet

job good, and besides, he's already in university
if he NEETed you'd complain he got scammed by the college system xd

youre recommending him now to take drugs to be a wageslave. i just dont get people
>>
>>34380078
no, i'm telling him to take low-dose amphetamine ONCE to get through an interview
if you/anyone has to take stimulants regularly to keep up a job, it's not worth it, to be clear
>to be a wageslave.
people need money for various reasons, OP is asking for specific advice

Your university has a help-you-get-a-job office that will give you practice interviews

>>34380016
Practice practice practice. Spam doing interviews and practice sessions u til you land a job.

Fake it to you make it, lie, think of examples to share that tell you’re a hard worker, don’t be desperate for the job but make them believe you’re a perfect fit
