(Help Requested) Stressed Out, interview help
10 years ago
So as I said a little bit ago, I've started looking for an apprenticeship around my city in plumbing. To be more specific, commercial new construction plumbing. A field where I can use my schooling in a less intense environment. (and less lethal!)
Now, this is where I may lose some of you along my thought train. When I start on something, I ALWAYS do everything I can to make sure I do it right the first time, and do it with pride. Sometimes at the expense of my body. Right now I currently am in a vocational school for pipefitting for 25 hours a week, alongside working for 25 hours a week. Sounds easy enough I know, except when you realize the only time I have to be calling plumbing companies that are in the field I'm interested in, is when I'm having lunch between school and work. Which is only at the most an hour and a half long.
I work general labor, and believe.me, I bust my ass working. I am a workoholic. I.have literally worked 127 hours in a week, and no, that is not a typo or an exaggeration. I worked Sunday through Saturday from 7a.m. to 11p.m., with an extra hour on Wednesday.
So this is where my stress starts coming in: I somedays only get 1 meal a day. I feel like I.have to get everything done on time. I am extremely tight to my schedule I set for myself.
Thankfully my current employer is behind me in.helping find a career, but I still feel overwhelmed. I don't have very much interview experience, have only had 1, and that one was debatable. Anybody have tips? Proffessionals are mainly sought after here (individuals whom have a >career< not a job.). I would greatly appreciate some tips!

I haven't had a job interview in a while. As long as you are confident in yourself and in answers, you should be fine.
