Before a job interview, people feel nervous because their brain thinks they're about to face something important, like being tested. It sends out signals that make the body react with faster heartbeats and shaky hands, just like when you’re really excited or scared. This is called stress, and it helps you stay alert so you can do your best.
Examples
- A kid gets nervous before a spelling bee because they know it's important.
- A dog gets excited before going for a walk, just like people feel before a big event.
- A person feels shaky before giving a speech because their brain thinks something big is about to happen.
