启迪:无论面试、见客户,都要想到自己需要呈现给别人的第一印象,这可能会给你接下来的工作带来较大影响。

共勉录:不同的形象会留下不同的印象,随之就会有不同的际遇。这不是以貌取人的问题,而是第一印象管理问题。

◆第一印象,永久的印象,只有6秒钟。

◆有人这样说过:“永远都没有第二次机会,去改变一个人的第一印象。”

问题导入(二)

1.谈谈你了解的职场中着装规范。

2.明天你即将面试,请为自己挑选合适的服装。

服饰选择应考虑Time时间(时代、季节、时间点)、Place地点(办公室、户外)、Occasion场合(上班或居家、喜庆或致悲、休闲或正式)。

启迪:面试时服装的选择要根据TPO原则正确抉择。使用正装面试是最保险的选择。
