Liliaicha Feb 2016 5:40pm, 17 Feb 2016 9,515 posts	0 Liliaicha Thanks for all the advice everyone! Much appreciated It was still pretty terrifying though, mainly because it would be a complete career change for me and I had to explain how I could transfer my skills across to that job. Seems I got the interview purely on the strength of my covering letter and the fact that I'm an ultra runner (for now ) He seemed impressed and wants to organise a face to face interview - unfortunately I can't make the ones he is doing on Friday, but at least I've given myself a chance. The job sounds really interesting, but you know what, if I don't get it I won't be upset because if they don't think that I'm the right fit for the job then that's ok. It's not like I think I'm 'perfect' for the job, and if they don't give it to me then they're crazy, it'll just be that any skills I might have may not be transferable - and I've promised myself a trip to Spain to study Spanish if don't get it
