Interview tips 7 body language tips to follow at your new job Are you facing the first day jitters at your new job? Apart from thinking about the nature of work and targets, you also need to focus on your body language as 'the first impression is the last impression' for many. Body language is a vital indicator of one's code of conduct and the following tips might help you ace your first day at work with confidence and panache.

1. 7 Body Language Tips To Follow At Your
New Job

2. 1. Firm Handshake
A firm handshake gives out the impression that you are self-confident, and
are ready to face new challenges. Also, don't be under the impression that
you shouldn't have a firm handshake if you are a girl.
2. No Plastic Smile
While a smile on your face always help to break the ice, sticking to an ear-to-
ear plastic smile throughout the day is not advisable. You should ensure that
you do not end up looking creepy and uncalled for in a bid to appear friendly
to others.

3. 3. Stand Whenever Introduced to Someone
You are bound to be introduced to a lot of people on your first day at
work, so make it a point that you stand whenever you are introduced to
someone. This would make you come across as someone who respects his
colleagues, and would also benefit you in the long run.

4. 4. Hand Gestures
While you might be accustomed to a lot of animated facial expressions
and hand gestures, keep it as subtle as possible in a formal
environment. Moreover, frequent hand gestures are a sign of
nervousness and anxiety and we are sure that you don't want to be
seen as a nervous employee lacking confidence on your first day at
work. Even if you are actually nervous, engage your hands in holding
something, like your cell or a pen, so that you don't end up rubbing
your palms or cracking the knuckles.

5. 5. Sitting Position
While this is not something that you should be doing for a good first
impression, a wrong body posture also invites unwanted attention and
health problems later on. Sit with a straight back and don't stretch out
your legs, looking like you are half-lying.
6. Three Magic Words
Learn to use the three magic words, i.e. "Sorry, Thank You and Please"
for a smooth journey in your new office. Letting go of ego and staying
humble will help you to come across as a well-mannered person.

6. 7. Table Manners
Remember that you can't have the liberty of being your carefree-self in
front of new people. Don't make rambling sounds as you chew your
food in the company of your new colleagues. Also, share your food with
your new friends to foster warm bonds in a new environment.
