- Abstract
Communication begins with listening and the skill lies in listening with eyes. As Patti Wood, a body language expert and author of Snap: Making the Most of First Impressions, Body Language and Charisma, says, in a face-to-face interaction, one can exchange up to 10,000 nonverbal cues. The interviewers have their own strategies to assess the candidates based on their requirement. But every job in every sector demands skill of communication, both verbal and nonverbal, to sustain and prosper. The success rate of the students depends on how perfectly one presents and how confidently one communicates. The interviewer and the interviewee need to take care of various aspects of nonverbal cues to help them succeed in understanding each other better through effective communication. Recruitment being the sole objective of higher education today, the students need to be more conscious about their efforts in giving 100% in an interview. This paper mainly focuses on the analysis of several nonverbal cues and their regulation, which is one of the important criteria during the recruitment process. The study also focuses on the understanding of the expectations of the recruiters along with the ability to read the nonverbal cues and the role an educational institution plays in making a student employable. This unitedly would increase the success rate of students in interviews.
