Body Language - You may disqualify Interviews (5 Mistakes)

Your body language is very important to crack your interview. a survey says 50% chance to select in interview is based on your body language. Come and see, five major mistakes which can loss your interview.

1: Not making eye contact

Failing to make eye contact was the body language mistake interviewers were most likely to say they hated. Sixty-seven percent of people surveyed said they didn't like it when candidates kept their eyes cast down. While you don't want to get into a creepy staring contest with your interviewer, looking at them while listening and speaking shows you're engaged in the conversation.

2: Playing with something on the table

Thirty-four percent of hiring managers cited fiddling with pens or shuffling papers as a major example of poor body language in an interview. Clicking a pen or similar gestures can be interpreted as a sign of anxiety.

3: Crossing your arms

Crossing your arms in front of your chest makes you look defensive and hostile, so it's no wonder that 32% of HR managers said this was not something they liked to see in people they interviewed.

4: Not sitting up straight

Slumping in your seat doesn't convey confidence. Thirty-one percent of HR experts said it made candidates look less than polished in an interview. Sitting up straight and squaring your shoulders not only makes you look confident, but it also shows you respect your interviewer and the situation you're in.

5: Using too many hand gestures

The higher the gesture, the more out-of-control you look. The key in an interview is balance: Some hand movement keeps you from coming off as too stiff, but too much and you could look like a loose cannon.

5 THINGS UNPROFESSIONAL PEOPLE DO AND YOU SHOULD AVOID

1: They brag, a lot

They may have had done something worth commending or own something others don't have. But bragging about these only widens the gulf with coworkers who may not be that lucky. So, try humility.

2: They are late, for work and meetings

You know a person is unprofessional when every day he/she has some excuse or the other to start office late. The reason: Being casual about office. They tend to be habitual in being late, including meetings. So be punctual.

3: They complain, and gossip

Unprofessional people are never content with any situation and tend to find faults with everything and everyone. Worse, they tend to gossip about colleagues, of course behind their backs.

4: They are very disorganised

Their desks and desktops both will be messy. They will also be slow and lost and basically not in control of the situation

5: They use bad language

Yes, targets can be brutal and pressure can make you blurt out swear words, but there is no place for profanities in office and not among colleagues, please.
