Editor’s note: Every week we ship an email newsletter featuring the region’s most exciting career opportunities. We’ve lovingly called it This Week in Jobs (aka TWIJ — “twidge.”). Below is this week’s edition; it’s meant to live in your inbox. Sign up for the newsletter here.

Feeling the urge for an afternoon caffeine boost?

Before you down that double shot, consider the “coffee nap.” Coined the nappucino by​​ author Daniel H. Pink, this practice involves quickly downing a cup of joe, then immediately napping for up to 30 minutes.

Here’s why it works. It takes some time for caffeine to hit your bloodstream, meaning by the time your alarm wakes you up from the power nap, you’ll be doubly alert from the shut-eye and the shot of espresso, avoiding the grogginess sometimes associated with a midday snooze.

And while you’re wide awake, don’t sleep on this week’s opportunities.
