are you applying for samaritans? because it's a long hard process.

a friend of mine does it and it's a massive commitment and a REALLY tough job.

They're basically going to put you through hell before you're allowed to get on the phone and you're going to hear things that are going to kill you inside.

I've been worrying about that too...pretty much everyone has a degree. Don't talk about graduation! I really admire you wanting to work for Childline, that's a pretty hardcore way of bringing good to the world. I couldn't do it. I work at Oxfam Books, which is an easier way to feel less bad about my part in our ****ty world, even if what I do is pretty indirect..
what does 'supporting statement' mean? Just reasons why you want to do it? I guess refer to any previous experience you might have done with a voluntary organisation, something to show you're dedicated, compassionate and probably able to think quickly. I can't really help, I'm terrible at that sort of thing. Good luck.

Well in the end I couldn't apply straight away because I had major money issues I had to sort out. I sorted stuff out and applied a few months back and have an interview on Tuesday! I'm not sure what kind of things I will be asked though. I hope I get it however as I really want the job.
