The Top 10 Lucky Interview Charms - what’s yours?

Interviews have strange effects on people, and because of the nature of them, interviewees feel the need to use some luck to improve their chances of being successful. How lucky they are going to be, seems to be dictated by which lucky charm they take with them to the interview!! A very interesting, funny and slightly worrying piece of research done by Peninsula shows a top ten of interview lucky charms!!

The resounding top spot went to underwear - apparently 60% of us wear lucky underwear for an interview to give us luck!!!

The Top Ten Lucky Interview Charms are:

  1. Lucky Underwear (sometimes unwashed!)
  2. Lucky Jewelery
  3. Brooch
  4. Lucky shoes
  5. An object from Childhood, i.e. blanket/teddy
  6. Four leaf clover
  7. Key ring
  8. Lucky stone
  9. Lucky Pen/Pencil
  10. Lucky photograph of someone i.e. boyfriend/relative

Some people believe that luck plays no part at a job interview at all and that it’s down to how we perform on the day - but obviously many people think differently!!

So have you got a lucky interview charm??
