Of course, these are not aspects of etiquette entirely, and most interviewers will not fault the
interviewee for being a bit nervous. Yet body language is important, and the path toward getting
hired begins with thorough mindfulness.
Greet everyone as your or they enter the room. Stand up if you’re first in the room and give each
panel member a firm handshake. Show a sincere smile despite any feeling of nervousness.

Avoid closing your arms and slouching while being asked questions, as these can likewise exude
insecurity. Sit straight without looking rigid. Even as your arms are kept open, keep your legs held
together. This will make you exude an air of both confidence and professionalism.
During the actual interview, never rush to answer questions. Wait patiently for each question to
finish, collect your thoughts, and reply without stuttering and stumbling. Project your voice as you
answer, without shouting, so that everyone can hear you clearly.
Of course, don’t take too long to answer. Focus on each individual question and don’t get caught
up overexplaining even if you’ve felt your answer was incomplete. Finally, thank everyone
individually and shake hands anew after the panel interview is done.
