That is a very good tip! The look straight at each other all the time is one of the things I find most daunting. I'll try and use this next time!

I think these are great ways to show you are good, but without being in your face. I will have to give them both a try! A really great tip I was given by an HR expert once was to use diagrams in a meeting -- i.e. draw out a matrix of Venn diagram of whatever you are talking about. The other person / people will feel naturally drawn to look at / interact with it, which makes them open up a lot more easily than when they are just looking straight at you. It definitely works and is a great way to frame a discussion Thanks for the interesting set of ideas – I was really drawn to your last one, which made me think about the idea of making sure you get some control / take charge a bit in the meeting / interview, which I think is also implied by the second idea.
