I was late for an interview for a serious reason. Would I make an impression of a non-punctual person?
One of the main qualities that describe a person is punctuality. If a candidate is late for no objective reasons (by the way, traffic jams or car failure do not belong to this category) – that is considered a disrespect to future work. You’d better call and warn!
Is it worth raising the section of hobbies and leisure activities?
If you choose to describe your hobbies, think about the consequences the recruiter can make. For example, if a person likes playing football, then he is most likely to be a team player, and if a game of chess, he may have the endurance and strategy.
Now many pay attention not only to words but also gestures. Is it important?
Yes, it is an important part of evaluation of the interlocutor. First of all, while communicating, it is important to pull yourself together and not be nervous, or at least, not to show it. You should maintain the goodwill and self-esteem. It is very important how a person appreciates himself, how he presents. It happens that at first glance, these candidates seem the equal, but many things depend on how each of them presents himself.
