Oh Cathy ... don't be so sure you have messed up - you know in telling him the sort of position you were looking for he probably did find out about you.

It's easy to say with hindsight, but maybe you could practise stopping yourself mid answer and saying something like "I am sorry I hope I haven't pre-empted your next question, you actually asked me to tell you about myself ..." and then start the answer again.

My first serious interview after Uni I didn't expect to be offered the post because they had asked me a couple of very sexist questions (it was an engineering post in Military Aircraft) which I had responded too rather curtly - they were on the phone first thing the next morning with the job offer.

Keep the smile on your face and take it on the chin if they don't offer ... it obviously wasn't your job in that case!
