5. I took a Xanax just now: Chenofsky Singer took an interview of one interviewee who was talking very slowly when she asked the candidate that is it her original way of speaking? For that she replied that she just took a Xanax as she was quite nervous before the interview meeting. According to Chenofsky being nervous before the job interview is quite a normal thing but before taking a medicine one should be very conscious about the effects, which can change your nature and personality and can keep you from bagging a great offer.
