I sometimes ask myself... should I be so worried? Paperwork is straight, the case is straight forward... why should I worry? I think maybe I am just too nervous for nothing. I guess I will just watch CSI miami?

I went with Luz for her interview and I was so nervous I couldn't sit still! I was sweating like a horse and thought I would pass out! But we made it through it, just make sure all your paperwork is in order and trust that you will be successful. When we got out of the interview I guess I made a little fool of myself. Just outside the door of the interview room I threw my arms up and let out a loud "WOO HOO"!!! I just had to let it out!

On a serious note though, don't risk anything. No drugs and no booze. Just relax and enjoy the feeling when your approved!

I would not recommend going into your interview smelling of any alcohol (or mary jane). :blink: This is YOUR FUTURE.

No kidding. Preparation beats perspiration - just triple check over all your paperwork, know what to expect, and be confident...also be yourself. Good luck! :star:
