Pre interview nerves . . . .

[tweed]

Was you going to be a tea boy?

[archie837]

Can you request a reinterview for the job you actually applied for?

[JC]

Was you going to be a tea boy?

nope, dispatcher for demon tweeks, you did want your goods in time for xmas yeah 

oh well, sh1t happens 

not that i expect anything but a thanks but no thanks in 10 days time at least its some interview experience. 

thanks for all the tips, wishes of good luck and PMs 

so what was so bad about it then?

well, fluffed the first question,

flat couldnt answer the second,

and from then on in struggled to transfer military terminology to civvy way of doing it.

but we did complete the interview, and even discussed company cars 

[Jay]

Don't sweat it, I'm sure we all had a few question we couldn't answer, it's the fact you either owned up and said you don't know or at least tried to answer it if was a "If you did XYZ, with this ABC" type question

[R32UK]

Dont sweat it. I once went to an interview for a placement year.. they asked me to write some code to explain encapsulation. I just made some stuff up and still got the job 

Strange things do happen. Like you said worst case scenario you got yourself some vital experience, and obviously made a good enough impression to get an interview!

did you BS or did you say 'pass/don't know'

I reckon you're not one to BS in a situ like that.. so you don't sound like you did too bad

[JulesS3]

Sounds like they need this position filled immediately, so are just putting anyone who has put a CV in forward (within reason) so you may still get it, dont write yourself off yet, you obviously had skills they would like within this role.

Having spoke to chuff last night it doesn't sound like a complete fail. Infact I thought it sounds quite promising.
Fingers crossed for you
If not its interview experience and will prepare you for the next one.
