Re: Vet nurse assistant.
No experience her either. The best advice I can give is to be prepared for the obvious questions though and be yourself. Hope it goes well for you.

Re: Vet nurse assistant.
Thanks guys! I don't think it will be all too dissimilar to my assistant job with the RSPCA, phone interview is in 10 minutes and then face to face tomorrow!!

Re: Vet nurse assistant.
Hope it's going well Rachel, cannot give any personal experience but a good book to read/have is the BSAVA Textbook of Veterinary Nursing, I have a copy myself and has been very useful.

I'm not Sue :(My OH thought he would be able to support me for the first few months while I build up clients, but the outgoings are mounting up since moving house and I just can't afford the time at the moment. Will try again when I've got some saving's behind me xx
Well done Rachel, Im sure they will love you!
That's a shame but maybe you can fit in a few here and there and word will get round how good you are and, as you say, in the meantime you can build up your savings x

Re: Vet nurse assistant.
Thanks you guys I've got the second part of the interview today! So nervous, I've always worked for charities on minimum wage for 60 hours a week and now I'm being offered a swanky vets job for £1 more an hour and weekends off(?!) lol! I had to go and buy some posh clothes I've never been to an interview like this before, usually just turn up in jeans and wellies to get shown around kennels! Arrghh!
