Topic: Body Language and the Phone: hose who work in-person. Don’t believe it? Continue reading. Here are some GOOD things to do: 1) Hold yourself upright when you’re on the phone. Think of how you'd hold yourself if you were the most confident person in the world. Be the most confident person in the world! 2) Move slowly. Gesture slowly. Speak slowly. Blink - slowly. This communicates comfort and confidence to yourself, and that’s what matters here. 3) Pause often. Only respond if you choose to. Remember, you don't need to react or respond to anything that you don't want to. An experienced and defensive Gatekeeper will often try to push you off balance, utilizing that famous “the best defense is a good offense” theory. Don't fall for it. Stay cool, and pause if you need to in order to keep your composure. Breathe. Here are some BAD things - avoid doing them! 1) Talking too fast or too much. This communicates that you're nervous and sketchy (unless you're telling a really interesting story, or you have integrated fast talking into your personality in an interesting way, of course). How many of us have done THAT? 2) Nervous gestures, laughs, ticks, etc. I've heard sourcers who laugh nervously after just about everything they say. This is the DEATH of communication - it instantly communicates insecurity. 3) Breaking eye contact. "What?" you’re thinking. “On the phone?” Yes, imagine yourself looking at her. You need to maintain eye contact until SHE breaks it. This establishes at an unconscious level that you're not afraid and will help you maintain your composure. Someday, it’s going to come into use as we’ll be able to “see” the person we’re talking to! I also recommend that you study the body language and composure of some of the world's most famous “leading men”. There’s a lot of material to be learned there! “I speak two languages, Body and English.” ~ Mae West Like what you just read?

Comment on: Blog Post 'INTERVIEWING IS NOT A GAME': s about what the answers actually mean. Fresh from the course they just took, or maybe impressed by the latest book on hiring, or body language, interviewers use our candidates as guinea pigs for the latest interviewing fad. Are high performers supposed to answer this way, or that way? If the interviewer perceives an answer to be wrong, or a red flag, is it really? Unless the interviewer is highly trained in human behavior assumptions are made that may be correct, or incorrect. Can I puke?…; Added by Barbara Goldman at 10:51am on February 6, 2011

Comment on: Blog Post '5 Ways A Recruiter Can Improve Their Interview Technique': eared right about the candidate; impressive CV, get along during the interviews, relevant experience, articulate, smart, say all the right things... But sure enough within a short time those hires turn out to be either poor performers or a complete bad fit. It's difficult to quantify why certain human behaviors attract or repel. Body language speaks volume about a person. I think the gut feel is really a natural instinct we have about someone or some situation based on the elements we can observe but cannot quantify.…; Added by Lisa Zee at 8:41pm on June 9, 2011
