Applying for a job

[ConverseCody]

I'm hopefully going to graduate in June with an honours degree in Geography. I have discovered a graduate job in the city as a researcher for Nationwide. I have lots of experience in research.

I have many part time jobs including three in retail and one in an office. The retail jobs I found pretty overwhelming. A lot of interaction with customers and fellow staff which made me feel pretty anxious. The office was slightly better. I felt considerably less anxious here as most of the work was behind a computer with not too much interaction.

This research job sounds like it may be more like this. A lot of time spent working on my own which I would prefer.

What do others think? Is research something which is quite good for S.A sufferers?

It probably depends on the kind of research you're doing. Some research involves interacting with the general public so I'd read the job description carefully.

Also, I think jobs are very subjective to the organisation, region etc. My job involves working with the general public and I know I may not cope so well with it if I worked in a different branch etc.

If I were you, I'd apply for the job and if you get invited to interview you'll get a better idea of whether it's a right fit. And don't forget that if you do get the job and it's not for you, then that's okay.
