Jobseekers are understandably concerned about making a good impression during the application and interviews processes. They will invest a substantial amount of time tweaking their resumes, practicing their responses to common interview questions, and obsessing over their choice of outfits for the big moment. In short, they want to have as much control as possible over how they come across to employers. However, while a job interview is an opportunity for a fresh start with a different employer, the truth is that first impressions are only part of the equation.
