Question, which I should've asked before the interview I just came from.
So I just came from an interview, lasted an hour. It was for a private company accounting position. I was not nervous, could care less if they extend me an offer, and it was by far the easiest interview I've had in a long time. No pressure because I already have a good paying job with benefits. I put on my suit and had the apartment set at a cool 65 degrees prior to leaving...Office attire is business casual, but the owner was in a suit and tie, so I deffinately errored correctly.
Anyways, I couldn't stop sweating! Like drip off the face sweating...the more I became self consious about it, the worse it got. I've always perspired, but this was bad! Finally about 30 minutes into it, I apologized and grabbed some tissue on the conference table and said, "I apologize this is only the second time I've worn a suit this year." From which they all said it was indeed hot in the conference room, which it was, didn't help I was sitting in the sun in a black suit (I was presented a seat there). My comment really broke the ice about it (obviosuly they could tell), and they all kind of chuckled and really it was no big deal. I do not think it will have any bearing on if I get an offer, and like I mentioned, really don't care.
I'm thinking of investing in a classy hankerchief and keeping it in my pocket from now on and dabbing myself off next time. What are all of your thoughts on this? At first this idea felt a bit rude to me, but twice I felt sweat actually drip off my eyebrow...awwwwkward. Any other ideas?
I'm not a drinker, and I ran on a treadmill for an hour first thing this morning (5 hours prior).
Ties feel like a noose to me, but that's ok, no Big 4 plans in my future anyways...
