2. Presenting Yourself
An interview is your opportunity to tell prospective
employers why you are the best applicant for the job. However, it is
important to remember that interviewers often make up their minds about people
within minutes - so you should consider the following:
First impressions
Appearance
Body language
Looking prepared
First Impressions
You may only have a couple of minutes to make a good first
impression so try to get off to a good start.
Enter the room confidently and close the door behind you
Respond to offered handshakes confidently - avoid crushing
the other's hand and seeming over eager
Allow the interviewer to take the initiative - do not take
over the other person
