Create a great first impression at interviews
It's true that first impressions tend to last. And at job interviews, it is
certainly a strong influence. Here are some things to take care of when you walk
into a company's office.
- Be polite to the person who shows you the waiting area. Ask them how they're
doing. Even a little gesture like this has the potential to work in your favor.
- Never look (or be) impatient or bored while waiting. Sometimes, interviewers
deliberately keep you waiting to see how you respond. Behave as if everyone
walking past you is your interviewer (one of them might be). Smile at people.
- Don't talk on your cell phone while waiting for the interviewer.
- Avoid eating or drinking anything while waiting.
- Greet your interviewer with a smile on your face and a firm handshake. Don't
crush his or her hand, though.
- Till the interviewer invites you to sit, remain standing. That's good etiquette.
- Be sure to have everything you need handy. Having to scramble around your
briefcase looking for something will only make you look disorganized.

Are you someone who cherishes his or her independence? And if so, do you find jobs restrictive, stifling -- personally and work-wise?
Maybe you ought to consider non-conventional options like freelancing. Today, there are millions of people who have made freelancing their career, part-time or full-time. Many found that they can do work they love, have more flexibility and often make more money than at a day job.
