AJC -- The saying goes that you only have one chance to make a first impression. Job interviews have always been an important time to take this advice to heart. For the first time in a long time, unemployment rates are holding steady and job openings, especially for part-timers, are starting to appear. This is also an active time of year for students interviewing for college admission or for summer internships. What you eat and drink before the important interchange can make a difference. If you’re a morning person- ready and raring to go with the rising sun- but scored a late afternoon appointment with career destiny, you can structure your meals and snacks to help keep you alert later in the day. The same goes for heeding advice on what you should avoid eating before a face-to-face interview -- uh, not the time for garlic or onions!
