Grokking the Behavioral Interview

# Open body language
**Open your body up.** Humans have a tendency to cross their arms and/or legs when they are feeling nervous or need protection. Go ahead and cross your arms and/or your legs. Do you feel shielded and safe?  If you do, that’s great, but you do not want the interviewer to feel as if they are on the other side of a shield. 

As soon as you sit down for an interview, automatically take a mental note of where your arms and legs are. Uncross your arms and legs if they’re crossed. If being so “unprotected” freaks you out, it is perfectly fine to cross your ankles as this will give you a feeling of protection without cutting the interviewer out. 



In this lesson, we'll study a few other body language techniques.
