Identify some nonverbal behaviors that would signal a negative interaction on a first date and on a job interview . Why? What could they mean?

Expert Solution

Step 1

Non verbal communication is the type of communication which doesn't utilize the usage of language or words, rather, it depends on one's body language and facial expressions. There are certain negative non verbal behaviors which may lead to people forming a negative perception about an individual. For example, at a job interview, if the candidate doesn't keep sufficient eye contact with his/her interviewer, or sits with their arms closed or in an manner which is deemed disrespectful, stares, frowns or scoffs at certain statements, keeps looking at the time, etc., then all these actions or non verbal cues are bound to affect the image of the individual negatively.
