Quais são algumas dicas de linguagem corporal para acompanhar uma entrevista de emprego ou apresentação?

I completely resonate with the importance of a smile and eye contact in both professional and personal interactions. As someone who has been on both sides of the interview table, I have noticed that a candidate's smile and eye contact can convey a sense of confidence, positivity, and engagement. On the other hand, as a candidate, if the interviewer didn't show a smile or avoided eye contact, it made me feel disinterested and disconnected. However, it's important to maintain a balance when making eye contact, as continuous eye contact can sometimes make the other person uncomfortable and lose their interest.

Body language and gestures can convey confidence and competence. When used correctly, they can make a big difference in how our audience perceives us. For example, I once gave a presentation to a group of potential clients. I noticed that some of them seemed hesitant or unsure. So, I made an effort to use more open and inviting gestures. I immediately noticed a change in their body language. They became more engaged and receptive to my message. By the end of the presentation, I was able to secure their business.

Speaking too fast is a sure sign of nerves, which can translate into a lack of confidence. Relax, you've got this. Take a minute to imagine yourself as confident as you can be. Imagine talking when you're feeling this confident. You probably naturally assumed a confident posture. You also understood the pacing of a confident tone. It's hard to do these things under pressure - during a presentation or a job interview - but if you can imagine that relaxed, paced, confident tone and strong posture when you're not stressed, it's easier to emulate when you're in the moment.

Posture and voice are powerful tools for projecting confidence and credibility. When we stand up straight, take deep breaths, and speak in a clear and confident tone, we send the message that we are in control and knowledgeable. This can make a big difference in how our audience perceives us. For example I always prefer to stand-up while giving presentation. It makes me more confident and my voice automatically sounds confident.

I am not sure if I agree with this. In my opinion, it can backfire you in multiple ways 1. The other person might think that you are trying to copy him/her and might feel offended and they might loose the interest 2. No matter what posture or voice pitch the other person is using, we should maintain the decorum and professionalism

In my opinion, Practice and feedback are key to improving one's body language skills. When we practice, we become more aware of our body language and how it is perceived by others. We can also identify areas where we need to improve. Feedback from others can provide us with valuable insights and suggestions for improvement. By consistently practicing and seeking feedback, we can all continue to enhance our body language skills and effectively communicate our message.

Dress professionally. It always help me in 2 ways: 1. I am professionally dressed, it gives me confident feeling and it helps me to do the conversation in a positive way compare to if I am dressed casually. 2. I am professionally dressed, the other person always make a note and it gives them an impression that I am taking the interview or presentation seriously and I am respectful of the interviewer or audience.
