Here are some body language tips for job interviews.

• Remain relaxed and calm. Avoid fidgeting in your seat, because that shows low confidence.
• Biting your lips is often interpreted as a sign that you're unsure of what you're saying. Avoid it.
• Be aware of your hand gestures and don't use your hands to make a point. It distracts and conveys a negative impression.
• Use an open posture -- don't sit with your hands crossed or your legs crossed.
• Shrugging your shoulders in response to a question is always a no-no. If you're unsure of what to say, take a few seconds to think of a response.

• Avoid yawning in front of the interviewer. Get enough sleep the previous night. Be fresh and alert at meetings.
