Answer 1

Answer!

A few effective nonverbal practices that she should keep in mind during her interview are given below:

• Avoid slouching. Sit with your back straight up against the chair or lean slightly forward to convey engagement. Steer clear of smiles or laughter when messages are serious.
• Display some animation with your hands and facial expressions to project a dynamic presence. (But avoid talking with your hands excessively, which can appear unprofessional and unpolished.) 
• Eliminate fidgeting and shaking of limbs.
• Establish frequent but not continuous or piercing eye contact with interviewers.
• Focus on the conversation.In a group interview, shift eye contact to the various speakers.
• Introduce yourself with a smile and a firm handshake. Be sure that the palms are dry.
• Keep your hands away from your face and hair.
• Listen carefully, and do not interrupt.
• Maintain open arms—folded arms can convey defensiveness.
• Modulate your vocal tone to express excitement and punctuate key points.
• Nod to demonstrate understanding.
• Observe the reaction of others to your statements.
• Read the nonverbal signals of others. Provide clarification if they look confused, and wrap up if they have heard enough.
• Refrain from forced laughter in response to humor.
• Avoid looking at the clock, your phone, or displaying any other signs of disinterest.
• Respect the amount of personal space preferredby your communication partners.
• Rotate eye contact with various speakers in group interviewing or networking situations.
• Shake hands firmly without excessive force.
• Show that interest in what the interviewer is telling you.
• Smile to indicate that you are amused or pleased with the conversation.

• Steer clear of monotone delivery.
