Job Interviews: Look Good to Feel Good

When you look good - you feel good

When applying for jobs and attending interviews, its vital that you look good and feel good to make the best impression and stand the best chance of getting that job.

Research has shown that how we say and do things has just as big an impact on how people perceive us as we what we say.  Over 90% of the factors that initially influence our opinions of others are non-verbal, i.e. what we see and hear, and only 7% are based on the actual words.  So it seems that image is important if we want to develop style and impact.  It is also significant because our image has an overall effect on how we feel about ourselves.  When we feel we are presenting ourselves well, we gain in confidence and self esteem.  We call this the cycle of success.
