Writing in the Money Times, Anter Prakash Singh pointed out that it is important to make a good first impression in an interview and reminded applicants that they are being judged constantly throughout the process.
He advised candidates to start the meeting by offering the interviewer a pleasant smile and a firm handshake, adding that they should display a confident attitude when introducing themselves.
Mr Singh also claimed that applicants should avoid showing their nervousness through their body language, explaining: 'There is nothing worse than you playing with their hair, clicking pen tops, tapping feet or unconsciously touching parts of the body.'
Furthermore, the commentator wrote that interviewees should sit in a comfortable position and ensure they use natural gestures and language when speaking.
Last month, Graduate Prospects business manager Chris Rea said that confidence is a good trait to show when being interviewed for a new position.
