I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown earlier this afternoon while I was awaiting “the call.” My heart was palpitating and my husband laughingly kept on telling me to stay calm. Easy for him to say! The phone rang and I answered it breathlessly. I was so nervous that I failed to hear what my interviewer was trying to say. I even made a disastrous blunder within the first two minutes, but fortunately, I was able to redeem myself.
The interviewer was quite nice and not intimidating at all. I expected some questions on my proficiency on my fourth language, but none came up. The questions mostly focused on my motivations for applying and my plans should I get the job. Overall, it was a pleasant conversation and I was told that I would move on to the next step in the process: The Interview Task.
So, I eagerly awaited the e-mail. It was about ten minutes after the interview that it arrived. And… it made my jaw drop. It was a dauting task to say the least, with sections on creativity, grammar, vocabulary, lesson planning, and idioms. There was even a case study! All these had to be accomplished within five days.
I’m a bit intimidated by the task, but I’ve started on some of the easier sections and so far, the output has been alright. The implications of my output would literally be lifechanging so I really hope I could come up with something impressive, or at least satisfactory.
Wish me luck everyone! I’m praying that this is something God wants for me and my family.
