Assessment day

Oh my.....what a day!! I feel shattered!! I went for an assessment day today for a new job involving a competency based interview, skills test, case study presentation without preparation and group work.

I would absolutely love this job as its so interesting, the people seemed lovely, the working environment was stunning with gym, hair dressers, great restaurant, flexi time, fab offices *sigh*........ there were 16 candidates seen today.

I'm treating this as a learning experience and despite feeling that I haven't got the job it was a positive day and I've learnt so much from it :o)

Brain update!

Ok so it's getting better, my brain that is! It seems daily exercise really does help. I'm 32 now, a great improvement on 58!

The exercises consist of calculations, speed is of the essence; high vs. low calculations; head counts; memory tests and reading aloud. I struggle with this one, reading aloud, but I'm getting there. It all stems back to school days when I hated the ridicule of reading in class and struggling over words. Anyone else out there using this I'd welcome comments, over and out for now :o)
