The thing is, you don&amp;#39;t have lunch interview with each of the 20 candidates. I bet in my case we were probably down to the final list of 2 or 3 people the most.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2275703768599664559/5981972944475496319/comments/default/4447040938194919124'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2275703768599664559/5981972944475496319/comments/default/4447040938194919124'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.careermomspeaks.com/2009/07/interview-over-lunch-can-you-handle-it.html?showComment=1248881305244#c4447040938194919124' title=''/><author><name>bw</name><uri>http://bwzone.wordpress.com</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.careermomspeaks.com/2009/07/interview-over-lunch-can-you-handle-it.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275703768599664559.post-5981972944475496319' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2275703768599664559/posts/default/5981972944475496319' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275703768599664559.post-4712388100101567752</id><published>2009-07-27T15:05:51.509-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-27T15:05:51.509-07:00</updated><title type='text'>I'm not too crazy about lunch interviews too for t...</title><content type='html'>I&amp;#39;m not too crazy about lunch interviews too for the exact same reasons that you mentioned.  I feel uncomfortable knowing that someone&amp;#39;s watching me while I eat.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, if I have to do a lunch interview, I will be very careful about how I conduct myself and I will also probably not eat that much.  I will avoid dishes that are quite messy to eat and I will also avoid alcohol to make sure that I have my behavior under full control.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2275703768599664559/5981972944475496319/comments/default/4712388100101567752'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2275703768599664559/5981972944475496319/comments/default/4712388100101567752'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.careermomspeaks.com/2009/07/interview-over-lunch-can-you-handle-it.html?showComment=1248732351509#c4712388100101567752' title=''/><author><name>Panaderos</name><uri>http://hometownboy.wordpress.com</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.careermomspeaks.com/2009/07/interview-over-lunch-can-you-handle-it.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275703768599664559.post-5981972944475496319' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2275703768599664559/posts/default/5981972944475496319' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
