I've got an interview for an finance office admin job today, and I'm really worried about the ICT task they are going to set. Silly maybe, but I have no idea what it could involve, except they use Office 2010 (I emailed to check what version).
I've taught this to students from year 7 to year 13, but it will be so embarrassing if they ask me to do something I've never covered. I do know how to use HELP and have been going through tasks I can think of on Word, Excel and Powerpoint. I can set up and use a database in Access, but I'm sure they won't be asking me to do that.
On the plus side, if I don't get the job I will at least have some idea of what these tasks may cover, and I can make sure I'm fully prepared if I'm ever asked to do one again.
The company is a social landlord who also run a local homeless shelter, one I used to fund raise for when I was a teacher. Not sure if this will be a positive mark, but you never know. To be honest I would rather be working with the people rather than just admin, but If I could get in, then I might be able to apply for other positions at a later date.

- but the very best of luck with the interview
