Start Your Career After Your Studies: Between Graduation & Job - Examination number: 9970411S
Do you know the saying, "Give me a second chance to make a first impression"?
In psychology, a so-called "first impression" is when a person forms a pictorial image of another person upon meeting him or her for the first time. However, from the perspective of psychology and brain research, we also know that first impressions can be extremely significant, especially when you start your career after graduation. If you have struck your contact person as likeable from the start, then he/she will not want to see you any differently. Unfortunately, the reverse logic applies just as well! The way you present yourself in job interviews can make or break your career.
On the other hand, fear of public speaking ranks first among the most common fears of humanity at 41%, ahead of great heights at 32% and far ahead of illness and death at 19% (Statista, 2013).
