Languages of the Body’s Movement
Magic of Movements in Body Language
Languages of the body’s movement differ from
person to person. A man that stares into a woman’s eyes
and smiles and smiles genuinely is often expressing
interest. If a person goes to an interview for a job may
approach the person with a friendly hi, shake hands while
looking into the interviewers eyes and casually seat
himself afterwards. Many people may act nervous at an
interview which is not a good policy.
The body relays many messages. One of the hardest gestures
however to decipher is anger, since all of us express anger
differently. Some people may clamp their hands behind the back
area, while others may puff up the chest. Still, some people
clam while mad and will shoot glares that are as sharp as a
dagger. While there are many gestures to consider, while at an
interview it is wise to know the languages that will give off a
positive outlook.
Some people may express apprehension while they lock the
ankles together, while others will stand in this fashion to
take pressure off the feet.
Thus, if you are heading to an interview your best bet is to
walk briskly into the room with your posture straight. You
should sit with the legs slightly apart, while tilting the head
slightly as you listen to the interviewer. You should also
maintain eye contact throughout the session while looking left
to right occasionally to let the interviewer know you are not
staring.
Personally, I’ve sit with my hands cupped in my lap, while
my back was straight and my eyes glared into the interviewers
eyes and landed the job. When I walked in the door, my first
words were how are you doing today. This left room for the
interviewer to start the conversation.
If you are at the interview you want to avoid looking
downward at the floor, while turning your face, since it will
only make the interviewer feel you are disbelieving. You want
to avoid chewing the nails and playing with the ears since it
might make the interviewer believe you are indecisive.
You want to avoid playing with the hair also, since it may
make the interviewer think you are lacking confidence and that
you have insecurities.
Tapping your fingers on a table, legs or other areas is also
not recommended, since it shows that you are annoyed. Avoid
closing the eyes while pinching the viaduct of the nose, since
the person may interpret this as a sign you are thinking
negative.
You should keep your palms open during the meeting, since it
will show that you are sincere, honest, and open. You want to
avoid resting your hands at the head while looking down to the
floor with the eyes. Some people may interpret this signal as a
sign of boredom. If you are bored at a short interview what
makes the interviewer think that you won’t get bored on the
job.
If you are rub your eyes at an interview the interpreter may
think that you are rejecting the conversation, by showing
disbelieving the interview or doubting him or her. Someone
showing rejection, or lying, or else doubting the interviewer
may touch and rub the nose slightly. If you nose is itching
because of allergies or similar sickness, be sure to let the
interviewer know that you have these allergies, hay fevers, or
sinus problems. This will make the interviewer more
comfortable, since we have all been there one time or the
other.
During the interview try to avoid crossing your arms over
the chest, since it may cause the interviewer believe that you
are on the defense.
