Inpreparation for interviews next week we practised meeting the interviewer, shaking hands, good manners-pushing your chair in when you leave etc. We also did role play and looked at a worse case scenario of what might go wrong in an interview and how to fix it. HILARIOUS, loud, very active lesson but the class was happy and hopefully they took away some essential skills to help them for their first interview.
On reflection I’m really surprised that many did not know the essential skills of meeting somebody, shaking their hand , greeting them correctly and knowing how to leave- standup, shaking their hand etc. This was a really worthwhile exercise if just to know those all important first- impression skills.
