Common courtesies and confident body language can contribute to a favorable first impression in the early moments when you have not yet had an opportunity to talk about your qualifications:
a . Use the interviewer's name, and pronounce it correctly. Even if the interviewer calls you by your first name, always use the interviewer's surname unless specifically invited to do otherwise.
b. Apply a firm handshake. Usually, the interviewer will initiate the handshake, although you may do so. In either case, apply a firm handshake. You do not want to leave the impression that you are weak or timid. At the same time, you do not want to overdo the firm grip and leave an impression of being overbearing.
c. Wait for the interviewer to ask you to be seated. If you are not invited to sit, choose a chair across from or beside the interviewer's desk.
d. Maintain appropriate eye contact, and use your body language to convey confidence. Sit erect and lean forward slightly to express interest. For a professional image, avoid slouching, chewing gum, and fidgeting.
e. Be conscious of nonverbal messages. If the interviewer's eyes are glazing over, end your answer, but expand it if they are bright and the head is nodding vigorously. If the interviewer is from a different culture, be conscious of subtle differences in nonverbal communication that could affect the interviewer's perception of you.

Answer to #4

Nothing can hurt a job candidate more than knowing little about the organization. Preparation will also arm candidates with information needed to develop pertinent qualifications and point their stories to solve an employer's specific problems. Companies that have publicly traded stock are required to publish annual reports that are available in school libraries or online. Be sure to read news items and blog posts, and sign up to receive news alerts from the prospective company for current company information up until the day of the interview. Use social networking utilities such as LinkedIn and Hoovers.com to find profiles of company leaders and gain insights on the types of managers this company employs. Employees of the company or other applicants who have interviewed might be of help to the interviewee. Employee reviews of selected companies, salaries, and sample interview questions are available online, and some universities share taped interviews with various company recruiters.

Answer to #7

You should prepare for a virtual interview differently than you would for a traditional interview. First, suggest a preliminary telephone conversation with the interviewer to establish rapport. Arrive early and acquaint yourself with the equipment; know how to adjust the volume and other camera functions for optimal performance after the interview begins. Second, concentrate on projecting strong nonverbal skills: speak clearly but do not slow down; be certain you are centered in the frame; sit straight; look up, not down; and use gestures and an enthusiastic voice to communicate energy and reinforce points while avoiding excessive motion that will appear blurry. Third, realize voices can be out of step with the pictures if there is a lag between the video and audio transmissions. You will need to adjust to the timing (e.g., slow down your voice) to avoid interrupting the interviewer.
