When it comes to the world of finance, first impressions mean everything. First impressions also mean that not everyone is treated equally, and people who look and sound the part are received better than people who make a poor first impression. 36
Timing
It only takes 30 seconds to make a lasting impression, and this is true even when you’re not there. This means don’t be late! 37 Being late shows that you don’t have respect for other people’s time. This is not the impression you want to give your employer, so make sure you are at least 5-10 minutes early.
Handshake
Your handshake can say a lot about you. 38 Too tight, you’re domineering(盛气凌人的). A warm and firm(坚定而有力的) handshake is perfectly acceptable.
Body Language
Your body movements are part of both your personality and appearance. Use them wisely. Carry yourself with confidence, like you’re very successful, even if you’re not. Walking in with purpose and power will give you an air of confidence. _39
Knowledge
If your interviewer asks what you think of the company’s recent efforts, the last thing you want to do is just stare back. Do your research. 40 Who founded it? What is their goal? You want to show the employer that you care enough to read up on who they are.
Doing your research and putting it all together confidently and knowledgeably is exactly what the interviewers look for in an employee.
