body language is a tricky subject

Body Language and Interaction
To try and give advice on ESL interviews about body language is a tricky subject. Different cultures have different rituals of greeting and levels of body contact, ranging from a formal bow to a bear hug. It is certainly safe for the applicant to rely on the fact that English-speaking greetings are obviously appropriate. However, taking the time to learn and then correctly execute the native greeting of a culture can make a very positive impression on the potential employer.
Regardless of the greeting used, it should be done with an air of confidence, with eye contact (unless proscribed by the culture) and a calm but enthusiastic demeanor. Practicing the greeting in a mirror or with friends can be very useful in making sure that the initial meeting goes well.
