Hi NYCS - I couldn't work out which one of the 2 in the picture was you
If you already realise you have a tendency to speak too quickly - something not at all uncommon of many people who are in interview/test/check situations - then you need to CONCIOUSLY slow down, at those times.
After all, aviation is NOT about seeing how
quickly one is able to perform a task, but how thoroughly, methodically, and correctly the task is achieved - 1, 2, and 3 - and THEN within the required time, which is always generously over-apportioned.
Never fall for the old trap of feeling that you are not going to achieve the set task within the required time!
So get out there, pump some iron, learn to look people directly in the eyes (without staring them down) during Q&A time, and be quietly confident.
You have been called to interview because THEY want YOU as a reliable employee, willing to learn their ways.
They have NOT called you in to try to teach THEM something.
You've got the basics of what it takes - now fine tune those assets.
