Recruitment Tip

 

Body Language

Ben CarnegieHow many of you have come out of interview feeling like you had aced it, only to be declined for reasons unknown? This could come down to your body language.  Confidence is key but this is not only conveyed verbally.

My top 5 tips may help you nail your next interview:

1.  A firm hand shake.  No limp wrists or squeezing so hard you break the interviewers hand.

2.  Maintain eye contact.  Don't glace around the room or look at your watch, look at the person you're with.  Don't stare them down either, this can seem aggressive.

3.  Avoid fidgeting.  Twisting your hair or constantly touching your face shows you're nervous.

4.  Mirror the posture of your interviewer.  This will help relax the atmosphere faster but never slouch or you will appear dis-interested.

5.  Watch personal boundaries.  Closer talkers weird people out.  If unsure, practice with a friend and ask for feedback.
