Imagine you're about to go on a roller coaster, and your brain thinks it's the first time ever. That's how people feel before an interview, like they're facing something scary and unknown.
Why does this happen? When we face something new or important, our body goes into fight-or-flight mode, making us feel nervous. This helps us stay alert and ready to do our best.
But why interviews? An interview is like a test, it's about showing who you are and what you can do. Our brains get worried because we want to make the right impression.
Examples
- A child is nervous before giving a speech in front of the class.
- A dog gets scared before meeting new people.
- You feel your heart racing before taking a big test.
