Job interviews

I just had a job interview and it was scary! My interviewer was called James and at first,

he seemed nice. He asked me about my current job and where I live. Later though, he

started asking really difficult questions. I could tell I was struggling and I started to

sweat. I really wanted this job but now I’m not sure I will get it. I think I will keep applying

to other jobs. I think I might ask my friend Sue for some advice on how to do well in a

job interview.
