The recruiter has read your resume. He knows who you are and where you’re from. He knows your marital status, your major and your grade point. And he knows what you have done with your summers. He has inspected you, exchanged greetings with you and smelled you. There is very little additional hard information that he must gather on you. From now on it’s mostly body chemistry.
what does body chemistry mean?
@vickie007,
What do you think it means?
@vickie007,
your demeanour, body language, the way you comport yourself
try confidence and intellect with just a smidgin of arrogance, oops
@oolongteasup,
Thanks, I think you got it!
@vickie007,
It sounds like your reading some kind of dysutopian science fiction novel?!
What kind of recruiter are you talking about? (Including the recruiter in your other seemingly similar thread)
My theory of recruiting and interviewing is this: Everyone called to be seen in person has the same skills and meets the position's requirements. The in-person interview is to see if the recruiter/interviewer/recruit/interviewee can stand working and being in the same environment with one another for 12 hours a day. That's my definition of body chemistry. ;-)
@Always Eleven to him,
That's what they are looking for, of course. Especially if there is any chance the recruiter or interviewer expects to be working with the interviewer.
