Stay Dry at an Interview. Win Prizes. Love Thy Pits.

Aside from a first date or your wedding day, nothing makes you sweat like a job interview.  With only one chance to impress and leave your current job behind, the pressure is on! 

Between your pre-interview research, questions designed to trip you up, and wondering whether or not you're making enough eye contact, you have a enough to worry about.

Our friends at Mitchum want to introduce you to their brand spankin' new Advanced Control™ stick/solid antiperspirant and deodorant.  The perfect addition to your interview toolbox. Providing 48 hours of protection for men and women, protection is guaranteed, even if the interview goes into overtime.

Mitchum Advanced Control™ combines the highest level of active ingredient available in the marketplace. That means when you perspire, fragrance technology kicks in, creating an aromatic burst that is sure to dance around the nostrils of the employer. And since it goes on clear, there are no worries about staining that freshly pressed suit.

Ever been on a stressful interview?  We want to hear from YOU! Tell us about your most stressful interview moment and Mitchum will hook one lucky reader up with a $75 Amazon.com gift certificate. Others will win their own stick of Mitchum Advanced Control™. Personally, I'm a fan of the Clean Control scent (touches of lemon lime, lavender and patchouli).

Whether you were faced with an impossibly hard question or called somebody by the wrong name, submit your interview horror story in the following ways:

Oh man, I got this one. One time in high school I interviewed for a company similar to Pac Sun at the mall by my house in Utah. They were looking for fun, energetic candidates and to interview we basically had to audition. As in sing and dance in front of the entire store and all the customers. I felt so humiliated that I never went back to the store and I've avoided all interviews that require that much effort since then.

Blue dress shirt. Yellow tie. Shiny shoes. MONSTER pit stains. Even though I was the most qualified candidate, I never got the call. What's that they used to say? Never let them see you sweat?

I once attended an outdoor job fair in Galveston where the temperature was pushing triple digits. At first I was mortified by my sweaty puts, but when I looked around, EVERYONE was sweating profusely...even the employers! We all sweat, so if an employer wants to hold that against you, you probably wouldn't want to work for them anyway.
