Why It’s Important to BE Nice to Everyone

June 2, 2018 By Le Courage Staffing Leave a Comment

When job seekers go on interviews, they typically focus solely on impressing their interviewer (s). Next time you go on an interview, be sure to be friendly, polite and professional with every person you encounter.

You never know the importance or professional status of each individual, so it pays to be nice to everyone!  First impressions are critically important, especially on a job interview, so make sure the impression you make at  a potential employer’s office is a positive one.

Some professionals might be surprised to learn that many hiring managers actually consult other employees around the office to get their impression of the interviewed candidates.  Hiring mangers realize that you put your best foot forward with them, so they want to know how you acted and treated others when you weren’t in their presence.  For example, many hiring managers will ask their receptionist or administrative assistants  what their first impression was of the interviewed candidate.

The receptionist is typically the first person you interact with at a job interview and the way you treat them says a lot about you.  Hiring managers want to know that you were polite and professional with their support staff, because your behavior will demonstrate what kind of employee you will be if hired.

Another reason it is important to nice to everyone at your job interview is that you never know what an individual employee’s status is within the company. For example, you steal spot from a driver in the garage and then that person ends up being the CEO of the company you are interviewing with! Or, you neglect  to hold the door open for a woman who ends up being the human resources manager of the company.

From the minute you arrive at the office to the time you leave, you should make a good impression on every person you encounter at you next interview.
