Imagine if someone who looked like Shrek walked in for an interview - what would you do?

Going for a job interview can be stressful, never knowing what to expect, and sometimes feeling like you need to cover all areas and be as prepared as possible. All that pressure can leave you feeling stressed and anxious...

Wanting to perform at your best and impressing the pants off your interviewer is ideally what you aim for when going for an interview. But everyone has a process, some over-prepare and find solace in knowing everything they can, while others just prefer to wing it. 

And on top of the usual pressure of an interview, the world is going through a pandemic, and getting a job can be even more stressful. So we can fully understand why this woman decided to destress with a DIY face mask...

This woman was trying to find a way to relax before her job interview at Bank of America. So she decided to try out a trend that has been circulating on TikTok. A green mask made of chlorophyll. 

She posted a video to TikTok sharing her dilemma after trying out the face mask because things didn't seem to go the way they were supposed to. Instead of alleviating her anxiety and stress, it caused her more as the mask turned her face green and wasn't coming off. 

We can't imagine that she was feeling very relaxed or confident after putting the face mask on and seeing the repercussions of the "Do it Yourself" approach...

Job interview at Bank of America tomorrow does anyone have any ideas on how I can get this off. Exfoliating did barely anything I’m still green. ##help

One person said: "Nah Besty we try things out after we're hired." (good advice)

Another person suggested: "Try vegetable oil or dish soap! Both of those work to get hair dye off, and vegetable out (oil) is what I used on permanent dye." 

We're not beauty professionals, but one thing we can say is if you're not sure about doing it yourself when it comes to beauty regimens, go to a professional. 

Do you have any interview fail stories?
