I Have Anxiety

I usually do not have trouble getting my application through the ATS because even though I’m a recent graduate, I was very involved in student organizations and took leadership roles in addition to also having four internships and completed a certification that usually only professionals in my field can get. My struggle comes when I’m interviewing because i get interviewing anxiety, and I believe it’s the reason why i have been having so much trouble getting a job and starting my career. I’m trying really hard to calmn myself and speak clearly and at a good pace, but I still find myself freezing - having an awkward moment of silence or stuttering.

Seriously, if thats the only time you get anxiety then take a half a 10mg of xanax an hour before an interview and you'll do great

Literally thinking of taking a few drinks before the interview if it’s a phone or video interview. @OldSoul11

@OldSoul11 i don’t really have access to drugs or stuff like that.

@AliceAlice19 lol on the phone or video interview prep of a couple drinks to get a chill on, but not having access to a xany, valium, or any anxiety meds is fairly odd, but at the same time I think you are capable of solving this limited anxiety. Simple stratagy, BELIEVE IN YOURSELF YOUNG PADAWAN...

just keep applying and keep doing it, it just gets easier every time. Practice ahead of time with a trusted friend and keep a list of talking points handy. Good luck!
