For the candidate it is important to make sure that clothes are clean, well iron and fit properly while looking professional.

It is important to be confident and speaking clearly with a moderate face can increase the effect of your conversation.

If you want to show enthusiasm then speak with a warm tone. Avoid speaking too fast or two slow or with a monotone voice because it makes you sound disinterested in a conversation. Also it is important to reflect on personal space.

4. Managing facial expressions 

It is important to maintain your emotions with your face because your face reflects your emotion. Facial expressions can make a big difference like a genuine smile, a nod of agreement or a look of enthusiasm. It is important to smile naturally while showing appropriate expressions that match your words. If someone is talking about a challenging situation for us then don’t smile too much. If someone keeps a blank face or looks this interested then it can make their impression as bad and show them as not confident.

Avoid speaking too fast or two slow or with a monotone voice because it makes you sound disinterested in a conversation. Also it is important to reflect on personal space. If the interview is in person, be mindful of the distance between you and the interviewer.

If it is a virtual interview then ensure that you are properly on the screen. Set at a comfortable distance and keep your gestures controlled, don’t leen to close or that’s the interviewers belonging in order to invite their privacy because it is wrong.
