"Interviewing" by William Seymour

The winning short story of the Bookseller Futurebook audio original competition 2019. On the morning of an interview, Robin Wood wakes from a dream about being an interviewee, where all the awkward questions give him a chance to devalue himself. He role-plays with his inner voice, then day-dreams about an interview while in the waiting room. After the interview his inner voice praises him then (in an unconvincingly sudden change of view) criticises him.
