Should I drink a beer or two, or some wine just before a job interview?

Question

Just to loosen up? How much will certs help?

Answer 1

i'd suggest rattlin one off in the bathroom before you go in, and don't wash your hands than you'll feel superior after shakin hands

Answer 2

Absolutely, unequivocally not. You might as well go in and curse out the interviewer. It's an insult to him or her and to the company you hope to work for.

The person who interviews you probably wasn't born yesterday and will be able to tell.

If you luck out and get a naive interviewer, you will be setting yourself up to only be able to perform while under the influence and that kind of performance is always inadequate. The job won't last long because they will find you out.

It sounds like you might want to start thinking about how you're going to deal with your alcohol problem.

Answer 3

Sure! Everyone wants to hire a drunk! Certs will definitely cover up the smell of booze-for about a minute. Let's hope this is a fast interview! Dumb@$$!

Answer 4

Ordinarily, I would say no. But since you needed to ask, it sounds like in your case it might help. Skip the Certs, you want to be as honest in an interview as possible.

Answer 5

If you want to *smell* like a beer or two or some wine while you're being interviewed.

Answer 6

NO cuz if it is a certain job u will have to talk a drug test and stuff and even if u smoke u cant have a cigarette for more than 48 hours and u have to tack lots of water

Answer 7

if u want to reek of alcohol and look flushed and have the interviewer think you're an alcoholic then go ahead !
else i suggest you just read a funny / cartoon book

Answer 8

LEAVE THE BOOZE ALONE UNLESS YOU LIKE BEING UNEMPLOYED. ALSO FORGET THE CERTS, THE BEER SMELL WILL STILL BE NOTICEABLE.

Answer 9

Unless you really like interviewing.....if you actually want a job are you kidding?

Answer 10

Unless you're applying to be a wine taster, this is a bad idea.
