In this Article you will read about how first impressions are important in job interviews or other parts of life. If it is really that important? Do you get a second chance? And if you do, is it as relevant as the first impression
The saying “You never get a second chance to make a first impression” highlight that it is very important to have the perfect first impression because it is in fact the only first impression you ever give to that person. As people tend to make quick judgements about people in generell, it is important to show a good body language and appearence.
But how exactly do you make a good first Impression? I for myself remember when I went to my first job interview. I practiced exactly what I am saying, what I am wearing and most important, how I want to appear to the job interviewer. When I opened the door I smiled at the interviewer but not to extreme, I waited for him to reach out his hand and then I did the same. After i sat down i tryed to have a calm bodylanguage but also to not seem bored.
First impressions are important in situations like job interviews, or even meeting new classmates. In these contexts, it can impact relationships. Although we can correct wrong impressions over time, making a good first impression can open doors and open the way for more positive interactions.
