Last Impression

That first impression is important in an interview – but so is the last one...

If one of your resolutions for 2012 is to get hired, it’s important to make a good LAST impression. A lot of interviews get more relaxed and casual towards the end – but don’t let your guard down. The end of an interview is usually a great time to make some mental notes on what to mention in your follow up letter or second interview. Watch for a personal touch, a pleasant surprise, or something positive outside of the job description.

When it’s over - use the same firm handshake, warm smile and eye contact you did when you arrived – and throw in a sincere compliment – people like people who like them.
