Overview: When you walk into an interview, remember this: It only takes 30 seconds to make a lasting impression. Research has shown that the first impression you make on an interviewer really sticks. In one study, untrained subjects were shown 20- to 32-second videotaped segments of job applicants greeting their interviewers. When the subjects rated the applicants on attributes like self-assurance and likeability, their assessments were very similar to the interviewers' - who had spent more than 20 minutes with each applicant. This paper explains some actions you can take to help master the first impression.
