Orbit, Stride and Interview Success
Researchers from St. Lawrence University found that gum chewing improves working memory, episodic memory and general information-processing speed. Chewing also gets blood flowing to the head and "wakes up" your brain, making it easier to focus.
- Chewing a stick before a big interview:
- may help you remember key talking points
- may reduce stress that could undermine your performance
- definitely freshens your breath
- Just make sure you throw your gum away before meeting your interviewer!
