Interview greeting is important because it can makegood first impressionon the interviewer and it communicates who you are.
So, first thing to do when you are in an interview panel is, relax! And before starting the conversation, remember to be polite, use formal language, shake hands confidently and maintain proper eye-contact.
Once you settle, Let the conversation between you and the interviewer be precise. Always remember to start the conversation with greetings and a thank you note.
Eg: Greetings to you, Sir. Thank you for this opportunity, I am XYZ, from XYZ. I would like to discuss how my skills can be right fit for this role.
Once after done with greetings, and when interviewer shoots a question, don’t rush to answer immediately. Instead, listen carefully to the question, take a pause, and then answer. Doing this allows you to speak concisely and opens doors for enriching conversation.
Forget not to smile while you are having a conversation with an interviewer. Smiling sets a positive tone in your voice and allows you to be comfortable.
Last but not least, make sure to be aware of your non-verbal communication i.e. your body language, movement, posture, gestures, facial expressions, and eye contact. As all these plays an essential role in the first impression.
