Is commonly believed that the first meeting with an unknowing person gives whole information about their personality and life. In my essay, I will contribute some explanations, of why I disagree with the statement above.
Non-verbal communication is the key factor. Interviewers usually use this method to understand personality as a complex in recruitment process for new employees. However, it is necessary to compare both sides of communication skills. For example, employees’ eyes can uncover lying, when a mouth says something that it is not true. In fact, a recruitment team can immediately create a view about this person and make a decision, if they want to have in their team that person, who is not telling the truth. Therefore, body movement and reactions are important things for creating an impression.
Verbal reactions and dresses can play a big role in providing information about individuality. However, judging from first sight can lead to mislead. Everybody wants to sell themselves in the interview. For instance, they choose a smart dress code, but sometimes they do not feel very well in this position. Instead of this, they have to choose clothes, which can tell you about the person, and who they are. In addition, if they do not feel comfortable in clothes, verbal communication will be marked in the wrong way too. Thus, judging a person is not appropriate, because many factors contribute to changing personality by outside factors.
In conclusion, in my opinion, knowing the personality from the first meeting is impossible; however, it can give you much information; such as the person who is the strongest, the trustfulness, the teamwork. In this case the collocation: ‘The dresses make a person’ is not true.
