Comment on: Blog Post 'Interview Protocol 101': t the least wear pressed jeans and a crisp shirt. In my opinion refusing all beverages might not be the best way to develop a relationship. If the interviewer is drinking coffee then I think it is OK for the interviewee to accept a cup as well. Part of developing a relationship typically involves consuming something. It helps with bonding on a more subconcious level to accept a beverage. That is sort of a human ritual to eat or drink together. So I would say the idea of not accepting any beverage might make relationship building more difficult. I think the rule of thumb is if the manager conducting the interview is also partaking of a beverage then it is acceptable to accept a similar beverage as well. But keep the beverage similar. If the manager is drinking water, then just drink water yourself. If the manager is drinking a simple cup of coffee then that is fine for you also, don't go for a soy cappuchino with honey. I agree that stumbling into an appointment of any kind carrying around a paper Starbucks cup with coffee stains running down the side is sloppy.

Comment on: Topic 'Mate': ve shaken your troubles away, put the gourd right side up but making sure the yerba in it is slanted. pour a little bit of lukewarm water on the "deep end" of the mate, wait one minute and then in one swift motion and with your thumb covering the top end of the bombilla (special mate drinking straw) insert it in the moist yerba. Then start pouring hot water 80° to 85° Celsius making sure you don't get the rest of the yerba wet. Drink the hot infusion trough the straw, rinse (we don't do this in Argentina but if you are a foreigner you are allowed) and repeat. Once the yerba on the wet side has worn out, put the straw on the dry side and start pouring there too. A regular sized mate should yield a one liter thermos of water (we are cool down here and not only use Celsius degrees for temperature, we also use the dreaded.... METRIC SYSTEM!!!). How was that for an explanation. Enjoy Best regards Francisco Abalo…; Added by Francisco Abalo to Argentina Recruiters at 12:07pm on November 12, 2008
