Put pep in your step!

Let's face something.  First impressions are EVERYTHING!  And if you have been without work for any length of time...fear may have start to set in...followed by a whole list of negative emotions.
But never EVER let your interview reflect this!

Here's a few simple steps to put you in the right state-of-mind before your next interview:
  1. On the drive to your interview...listen to music that will put that PEP in your step!  (Why do you think that during any sporting events warm-up period there's peppy music playing?)
  2. Dress the part!  Business attire means YOU mean business!
  3. From the MOMENT you step into the presence of the person who is conducting your interview, make eye contact with them.  Shake their hand firmly and thank them for their time.  Confidence is a very attractive trait.
  4. SMILE!  ...and maintain good posture.  Exude confidence with your body language.  ACT like you WANT the job!
Now get out there and go DO it!  These four things will get you on your way to turning a corner in 2012.

Welcome to your new career!
