How we
enhance our
body image

We need to effectively
communicate our professionalism
both verbally and nonverbally
Body language is very crucial in a
job interview which most job
candidates spend a significant amount
of time worrying about what they will say during their interview
only to blow it all with their body
language for example how we walk, move, sit
and stand
SNH ©
Prepared yourself by reading up on the company
Practiced what you'll say to some of the more common interview questions
Have them at "hello" If you are rocking
back in your chair, shaking your foot, drumming your fingers or scratching anything, you're going to look like the type of future employee who wouldn't be able to stay focused
Shake your hand, watch
yourself

• Even if you really do just have a cramp in your neck, these gestures make you look disinterested
Rub the back of your head or neck
• This suggests that you're not being completely honest
Rub or touch your
nose
SNH ©
•This will make you appear disinterested and unprepared
Slouch back in your seat
•You'll appear ready to make a mad dash for the door
Lean your body
towards the door
SNH ©
•You'll appear unfriendly and disengaged
Sit with your armed folded
across your chest
•It's distracting and shows how uncomfortable you are
Cross your legs and idly shake
one over the other
•This is a look people naturally adapt when they are trying to distance themselves
Stare back blankly
SNH ©
• In addition to projecting interest and engagement in the interaction, aligning your body's position to that of the interviewer's shows admiration and agreement
Sit up straight, and lean slightly forward in your
chair
• Nod and make positive gestures in moderation to avoid looking like a bubblehead
Show your enthusiasm by
keeping an interested expression
SNH ©
• Invading aromas can arouse allergies
• Being the candidate that gave the interviewer a headache isn't going to do anything in your favour
Limit your application of colognes and
perfumes
• Make sure you briefly address both people with your gaze (without looking like a tennis spectator) and return your attention to the person who has asked you a question
If you have more than one
person interviewing you at once

•Invading personal space (anything more than 20 inches) could make the interviewer feel uncomfortable and take the focus away from your conversation
Establish a comfortable amount
of personal space between you and the
interviewer
•If they do, refrain from staring at your interviewer while they address their immediate business and motion your willingness to leave if they need privacy
Interruptions can happen
•Standing increases your level of alertness and allows you to become more engaged in the conversation
Stand up and smile even if you are on a
phone interview
