I was reflecting on the approach of Rich and Joe in last week's episode to self-esteem, and my mind went back to an interview I had whilst I was still in the Civil Service, over 10 years ago. It was for a senior role and it was, without a doubt - the worst interview I\u2019ve ever had, cringworthy, terrifying, embarrassing and humiliating. I\u2019ll tell you all about it this episode.\n\nWhy the hell am I sharing this - When I\u2019d much rather just keep avoiding this memory. \nWell for three reasons -\n * It might resonate with some of you\n * You might me willing to share your worst interview experience with the P-Soupers\n * In the next episode - I\u2019ll share how I can usefully reflect on that interview, using a tool called the ACT matrix - to help me sort my experience, and learn for the future.\n\nIf you'd like to share a terrible interview experience with the P-Soupers - you can email me at peoplesoup.pod@gmail.com - you can leave a voice note on whatsapp on 0044 7771 851118.\n\nI can read out your experience without giving your name - or maybe you'd like to chose a pseudonym!\n\nShownotes at http://www.rossmcintosh.co.uk/2022/08/the-greasy-pole.html\n\nConnect with Ross and the show\n\nTwitter https://twitter.com/PeopleSoupPod\nhttps://twitter.com/RossMcCOACH\n\nInstagram https://www.instagram.com/people.soup/\n\nFacebook https://www.facebook.com/peoplesouppod/\n\nLinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/ross-mcintosh-261a2a22/\n\nLinktree - for links to many other podcast platforms and apps - linktr.ee/PeopleSoup\n\nAnd you can support the podcast by buying me a coffee! https://ko-fi.com/peoplesoup","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/7fbec780-4cff-4f58-ba56-ad9d056683a2/artworks-eueqsxqhppottkgz-moboea-t3000x3000.jpg"}
