I had one experience where as a new employee I had to introduce myself (very brief - name, position, previous employer) in front of the head of HR and with 50 other new employees (we all had to do this). I had the usual for me full onset of shakes, sweat, tunnel vision, extremely high and strong pulse. I managed to stutter out the information.
30 minutes later the CEO showed up and we had to do this all over again. But this time, the symptoms were so mild that I was a little bit surprised and wondered if this was the normal butterflies in your stomach people had talked about.
I have the suspicion that I had already used up most of the adrenaline, or something like that. :)
