Only if I can get through the door.

So far in my jobsearch, I have only been to one single interview. And 
the interviewer appeared to be attempting to invent a reason to hire me 
during the interview. o_O That being the case, if I can persuade them to 
talk to me, I figure I've got a shot...

Nah. I think she's just warning me that "graduate recruitment schemes" 
might be closed to me at this point. But we'll see.

My sister really *does* have an MSc in Chemistry. She's now studying to 
be an accountant. (WTF?)
