If we replace the iced coffee with a big gulp or a slurpee, maybe they will see the issue 😭

Exactly. One would think this is common sense, but…….

When I saw someone say that you should only be bringing your resumé to an interview and one of the comments was “so I can’t bring my keys or wallet??” I knew we weren’t dealing with normal people

Don’t bring in a beverage. Don’t chew gum. Look presentable AND professional. Early is on time. It’s so simple.

It’s not a big deal in ANY way to go without coffee for 30 min.

If you can’t follow the stupid rules of corporate, how do they know you’ll follow the serious ones?

The crazy thing is that after you get hired, you can drink all the matcha lattes you want at work. All you have to do is be on your best behavior for at most an hour.

Get hired first then do what you like when you get the job. I used to have a whole chemex on my desk 😂 before I started working from home.

I have 28 people on my staff that I interviewed, I could literally care less and never even thought about it before now. Infact I drink coffee while conducting the interview. If you plan to drink coffee while doing the job makes sense to drink it while you interview for the job. If anything it maybe makes then more comfortable during the interview so they do well. Guess that is my my retention is so good, I don’t play hierarchy games. Also, side note, I just had a massive board meeting yesterday with 15 people, and all did presentations and have major conversations, every single person brought coffee, including the CFO who was vying for a multi-million dollar deal. I promise you it’s not that serious

Interviews are not casual and typically competitive, rattling an iced coffee is very casual. It’s an audition, once you land the job you can usually come in business casual with your iced coffee.

Or, Counterpoint: The attitude of interviewers disqualifying over an iced coffee is a bigger problem of over social policing similar to “nobody wants to work anymore” from boomers. Most of who I’ve seen enforcing or defending this being a disqualifying variable has been millennials like myself. It’s feeling like a staunch and needless generational disconnect more than a cut & dry hidden test of office virtue.
