“First impression is the last impression.“
The practice of making one appear neat, tidy and pleasurable for a positive self-image at a particular time or place is the simplest way to define Grooming for both work place and day-to-day life. This is a non-verbal form of communication through one’s body language and etiquettes.
Interview being a very important part of the selection process for a Job Seeker, the role claims a desperate need for grooming of the applicant. Even before the candidate showcases his skills, they are judged on the basis of looks, dressing style, body language and mannerism.
Appropriate grooming and professional appearance are vital to gain respect and positive attention and if one is, then he/she is considered a mirror of sophistication, intelligence and a credible aspirant on the professional front. Preparing an individual for a particular position requires skilled behaviour and provides ample opportunity for practice and guidance in arriving at the correct decisions. It is a dedicated subject and one needs to keep up with the latest trends and style.
Prerequisites of Personal Grooming:
- Verbal communication: This is the most common, affluent and the most judged form of communication. Use of proper dialect, accent, tone and situational voice modulation are radicals of good verbal communication. It’s the most impactful, both in face-to-face interaction or virtual connection spread across formal and informal grounds.
- Written communication: This is widely used as a formal communication medium and a successful written communication comprises of messages sent following official protocol via emails.
- Dressing Etiquettes: “A man is known by his dress and address” and appearance of an individual is the reflection of one’s personality thus this happens to be of vital importance in grooming traits.
- Official and unofficial get together: Social behaviour of an individual in a congregation range from seemingly simple social conversations to dining and other protocols.
- Virtual presentation and appearance: Landing on the most recent form of connection during these trying times when the only criterion open for interaction world over is the virtual window. A whole lot of work to be done both on the personal appearance, verbal and non-verbal communication, social etiquettes and to top it all the newest of all, internet etiquettes.
