BODY LANGUAGE
"Only a small percentage of communication involves actual words: 7%, to be exact. In fact, 55% of communication is visual (body language, eye contact) and 38% is vocal (pitch, speed, volume, tone of voice)."

These figures come as little surprise to those of us in a relationship. Just a subtle look from your better half can say a thousand words.
A job interview is no exception. Have you ever tried to sound positive with your arms folded? Or look professional when you're slouching on the chair? The message that your portray includes your attire, gestures, energy levels and attention to detail both in your responses and in your presentation. Your words, your body language as well as the pitch of your voice entail the complete package that is your persona.
Keeping track of these indicators during the interview is also an art form. Not only are you paying attention to the interviewer and responding to his questions but you should also try to remain aware of your body language and pitch.
It's certainly a tough gig, but one well worth mastering. Whether you practice in the mirror, in front of your parents or in front of your wife it's the attention to detail that may eventually set you appart from the other job candidates.
They say that statistics don’t lie. While less than 10% of communication involves words, the average person remembers less than 50% of what he hears. Frightening? No way! Check out statistically perfect interviews.
