It takes just seconds to form a first impression, and a first impression at a job interview happens just as quickly.

Here are five qualities you want to convey right from the start to make a good impression at a job interview:

7 ways to make a lasting impression at your first day of job
Getting jittery, nervous, butterflies in the stomach- the big day for which you’ve waited for years is now nearing and is right ahead of you, and you really don’t want to mess it up. There is and will always be a first time and your first day at your first job is just round the corner. While, it is completely understandable to be a little nervous, it will not be that difficult if you take care of a few things.
Be Prepared!!
Come prepared for your big day, which primarily means have small self-introduction ready or what is generally called as ‘elevator pitch’. Prepare a short intro’ of the self which could cover your college and course details and a line or two about your unique hobbies or interests. Do not talk about hobbies such as eating, watching TV, etc…they are lifelines….not hobbies!! Talk of your interest in Robotics, Mobile Gaming, Software Designing, etc. It’s also advisable to read-up on the company you are joining and share a line or two about its growth, service line or history, if any.
