Opinion: Knowing how to keep calm under pressure means a lot to people nowadays. Especially for those who live in urban areas. Take me as an example, I exercise and read whenever I feel stressed or under pressure. I personally perceived that the best way to cope with your stress or pressure is to distract yourself, and face them directly afterwards.
What would you to fight them?

I have been interviewing recently. Honestly, it is quite interesting to see all sorts of companies. For example, you might not know that some of them are making money by walking around the blurry line between legal and illegal areas. Also, I have never thought of the idea that so many start-ups are desperately searching for the experienced recruiter and the experienced HR specialist. Perhaps the ones they are interested in are not interested in them at all. Who knows?

練習~~
