Body language is the most important factor in interview. If you wear a unusual dress that would be your unfit for the culture. On the other hand, if your gesture and posture are not meeting in interview that would be a chance to lose a job.

Body language is a form of non-verbal communication that conveys more than words can say. Body language enables an interviewer assess the interviewee's honesty, predisposition, confidence, focus, among other things. More often than not, ones body language does not lie. Hence it is important for the interviewee to prepare adequately for an interview so that their words are in tandem with their body language. One should also practice good posture and avoid nervous gestures eg shifting eyes, shuffling feet, nervous hand gestures, etc that portray a lack of confidence in oneself. Maintaining a great attitude will show in the interview and in your body language hence earning you extra points.

Yes, body language is very important in an interview. It is a key to creating a first good impression along with your dress. When you enter the room for your interview, taking permission to enter, the way you walk in & greet, how you shake hands with proper eye contact & sit down tells a lot about your confidence, preparation & enthusiasm with which you approach the interview.

Preparing good answers for common interview questions is a great way to appear qualified and confident. For most interviews, it is crucial to get the message across to the interviewer that you are trustworthy and fully capable of doing the job. However, what you say during a job interview will comprise only part of your message. The rest will come from your body language. Remembering a few things about effective body language can help you communicate a positive message to your interviewer. You can make a solid first impression with a firm, but not iron, handshake that accompanies eye contact and a smile. Keeping arms open and uncrossed will communicate a warm and friendly message, and sitting tall with your back against the back of the seat will communicate a message of confidence. Through keeping an interested expression and aiming to keep eye contact for 2/3 of the interview, you can convey that you are engaged and ready to take on the job. Many interviewers report that bad interviews most often contain little to no eye contact! However, locked eyes or too much eye contact can cause you to appear overly aggressive or creepy, so be sure to look away occasionally. Furthermore, hand gestures can be an essential part of your message to the interviewer. Simple, infrequent hand gestures help emphasize what you are saying—however, avoid pointing or using too many hand gestures, as this can make you appear fidgety and disingenuous. Playing with your hair or touching your face can also make you appear unprofessional, so if you are unsure what to do with your hands, folding them together and holding them in your lap is an easy, neutral gesture that you can hold until the initial nervousness decreases and you begin to deliver those great answers that you prepared earlier. Just be sure to give another firm handshake, a smile, and eye contact once the interview is over!
