I have an interview!

[BigJonno]

After nearly three weeks without even a callback, I finally have a job interview. If I get it, I'll be working at the HMV Gamerbase in London, which is a kind of half game store, half LAN gaming centre place. It's for two months, which is exactly the length of time I need and, unlike all the other temp jobs I've applied for, it looks like it'll be a lot of fun. It'll certainly be busy!

[GigaFuzz]

Good luck. I'm waiting to hear back from interviews last week myself.

[frederec]

I hope it goes well.

[fitbabits]

Good luck. NOTE - stay away from the LoEP thread!

[Bone]

Sounds fun. Hope it doesn't make you loathe gamers. Well, at least any more than having to deal with a load of pricks on a gaming forum already has.

Working at Gamestop made me hate Playstation 2 owners. And I was one.

Don't worry, I've already had plenty of experience working with the gaming public. About five years in assorted retail establishments and a short spell doing customer service for Runescape. The horror, the horror!

[Generation ABXY]

Ah, best of luck to you, then, Jonno.

Oh, and same to you, Giga.

[civil]

Kick ass big guy!

Hell, I loathe gamers and I have never worked in a game store!

[Bone]

Yes, it's not mutually exclusive. But the latter can intensify the hatred like a haughty, nerdy telescope with B.O.

[Ghostbear]

Heh, yesterday when I was buying Starcraft 2, the clerk insisted that Diablo 3 is coming December 12th or something. I didn't have the heart to tell him he was wrong.

[Squidbot]

Huzzah! Top news, chap! By the by, we need to hook up for some Alien Swarm this week.

[Narradisall]

I'd come by an make your gaming retail life a living hell, but SC2 doesn't have LAN. :(

[Jason]

Congrats and good luck.

Working at Gamestop made me hate Playstation 2 owners. And I was one.Working at EB/GS made me hate a lot more than PS2 owners. My experience all of the consoles had their share of fanboys. We had one very obnoxious Sony guy and two very obnoxious Microsoft guys. It was fun to listen to their chats torture to listen to their supidity if they were in the store at the same time.

Good luck Jonno!

The only pre-interview well wishing you'll ever need:

Don't fuck this up.

Aren't you studying game design? If you ever wanna come stateside, I could try to mine my contacts for you. :)
