Memorable First Impressions

Making a positive memorable first impression takes work.

But you are well on your way.  You have a prepared and practiced networking profile.  You want to be certain that you deliver it with enthusiasm and confidence, but not arrogance. 

Extend your hand for a handshake when you first meet someone, make eye contact and smile.  Introduce yourself.  When they introduce themselves, repeat their name. It’s nice to meet you Jack Smith.

After introductions, use your networking profile.  I recently graduated from State University with a degree in Theater.  I would love to work at a children’s theater program. 

What next?
