on 4/19/2008 Also try to mirror there actions during the interview. The way there sitting or something, it gives the immpression that your in sync, therefore the interviewer is more likely to warm to you. Plus if they make a joke and you don't "get it" just laugh anyway, if you don't they'll think either your stupid or that you think they are. :D

on 11/22/2005 Maintaining eye contact with the person you are speaking to is a great communication skill. When you speak to others, the best way to note if they're listening is if they're maintaining eye contact with you. The same goes during an interview. If you fail to maintain eye contact with the employer when he is speaking (or if you look around the room when you are speaking), the employer may get the wrong impression. He may believe that you don't care about the company, what you're doing, why you're there, or what he has to say.
