The signs and hints that we reveal through our actions constitute body language. Body language is an easy method to understand the result of any interview for work. We are often not conscious of the actions or motions that we perform but they help others to understand our behaviour and sometimes character and therefore form an idea about us. Hence it is of utmost importance that you should be able to control and also refine your motions when you appear for an interview. Your attitude should be an optimistic one. Body language is a sort of silent communication between people and hence is extremely intimate, personal as well as influential. You can gauge the emotional condition of others through their body language.
You should be able to master the art of body language as it will empower you with the ability to know what the person sitting next to you is brooding over.
Body language comprehension and then deductions is a discipline of art and science. Each person nods or moves to show certain emotions or to communicate something. Each action has a cause and the necessary effect. Hence learning to understand body language, gestures and hints are essential.
1. A person crossing his or her arms over his or her chest is a commanding and also fundamental gesture. One interpretation is that the person is drawing a wall, maybe without actually knowing that he or she is doing it, between himself or herself and the person he or she is conversing with. Another interpretation could be that the person is slightly shivery or feeling cold and hence is hugging his or her own self to keep him or herself warm. If it is done in a jovial environment then it might be that the person is pondering over the topic of conversation. In case the situation is one of conflict then the gesture is surely one of resistance. In case the listener inclines away from the person who is talking, the resistance gesture is emphasized. When the listener has a cold or empty look on his face it means sheer unfriendliness. This person is surely not a friend and also might contemplate serious measures to oppose the situation.
2. When a person keeps looking into the eyes of the speakers, it can mean two things - a) the listener affirms what is being said to him or her. b) The listener does not have faith on the speaker and chooses not to get him or her out of sight. Again if the listener keeps averting his or her gaze, it means that he or she is not too interested and does not really share similar views with the speaker. People suffering from anxiety disorders usually cannot hold on their gaze comfortably. Just because we learn from childhood to maintain eye contact while talking to a person, this motion is not a very efficient method to judge a person's mood or thoughts. In case a person has his or her arms across his or her chest and is also holding your gaze, then it might mean that he or she wishes to discuss with you some matter that has been troubling him or her. When a person is fiddling with some object and also looking straight into your eyes, he or she is indeed thinking of something else.
3. A person stroking the ear or scratching the chin is quite surprised and shocked due to some reason. Eyes feeling tired or even scratchiness indicate similar feelings. If a person does not believe in what he or she is being told, then it is quite natural that his or her attention will waver. He or she will generally be distracted and stare at some far off landscape.
4. A person generally represents Boredom by moving the head to either of the sides or even by staring blankly at the person he or she is talking to. A person might also be suffering from a pain in the neck if he or she turns the head to one side. A distracted look in the eye may also be due to some optical disorder.
5. If a person is intrigued and thrilled by the conversation, it is shown by constantly looking into the speaker's eyes.
6. If someone keeps stroking his or her face while talking to another person, it might mean that the speaker is trying to hide facts or deceiving the listener.
