How do you make a good impression in an interview?

[HelenaTheBass]

i want to volunteer in a retirement centre, if i get an interview. so what should i wear or say so i leave a good impression? ( i want to sound business-like and serious and leave a lasting impression)

Dress smart and act professional. What are your qualities? why are you the best? Don't mumble and and take it easy.

Hope it helps.

Dress nice. But not too nice. Also, answer all questions with what you think they want to hear. Be nice. Talk to them like you would talk to really important, like the president.

Dress neat. If you are a man then shirt and tie - crease down the front of your trousers and no loud colours. Female then hem not too short and neckline high. Nothing revealing in any way.

Look them in the eye - no dodgy sideways or floor glancing. Its scary!

Shake them by the hand and be humble. Thank them for the interview when its over, and smile. Let them do the talking and try to be honest - they will be able to tell!

Think about WHY you want to do this and have the answer ready.
