I think the majority of the steps they are talking about are more corporate level style jobs. Most jobs nowadays are virtual and these old school tactics don't resonate with the new type of jobs that come up now. They are still fantastic tips. But the biggest thing you need to be able to do is this: Sell yourself, think of the job you are applying for and do some research or internal value searching to see: What have I done in my previous jobs/experiences that make me qualified to do this job.
Most time they will ask the dreaded question: Tell me about a time where. INSERT PART OF JOB HERE Maybe it was a difficult situation you overcame, maybe you had to break some really bad news to someone, how did you handle it with empathy and so on and so forth. Being able to sell yourself is legit 70% of the interview. The other 30% can be making sure the business aligns with your goals and your values. If you fit, it will click.
My Experience? I hate interviews because I hate selling myself. That is a personal issue I've been working on, but I got my recent promotion because of what I said above. It's all about experience.

Oef! Maartje has a very strong and good advice, the other two, especially Abby is way to intens and robot. Maybe that works in the US?
My advice, mimic, make space and take time. Give them sincerity IF you got it for them. Otherwise don t try. I ve been chosen while I came to a conclusion the job wasn t for me and already told them so in the interview. And ALWAYS, ALWAYS know YOU are the best for the job. I always tell them so with a little humbleness, because I KNOW I am the best.
Gladly those times are over for a long while, now I am at the opposite side of the desk and having a nice time with nice candidates

A mindset tip that will help with confidence: remember that you as the interviewee have power too. This isn't just about pitching yourself to the company, it's about finding out if the company is right for you. THEY have to prove themselves to YOU as much as YOU have to prove yourself to THEM. (Believe me: I've sat on hiring committee where we REALLY wanted to win over the top candidates) Knowing that you have power in the relationship too might help you be less anxious.

I would say instead of confidence I'd look for self-awareness. It's okay to be shy and not march into the room like you own the place. But it's important to be aware that you are maybe socially awkward or need a bit of time to thaw up. I'd rather employ someone like that and have a well-mixed team than Mr Testosterone.

I got a job offer because I was the only one who talked to the receptionist out of all the candidates. We didn't talk much but chit chatted about the weather, she had a beautiful picture behind her on the wall and I commented it was very nice. It made all the difference in the world I guess.

How about don't take jobs with corpos that judge good posture as 'being headstrong. '.
The only constant in job interviews is that the process is ARBITRARY. No two companies are alike, and the key to getting the job IS KNOWING THE PERSON HIRING.

This doesn't apply to software engineers. Interviews are all online. Also, doesn't matter what you look like as long as you can solve the code/problem. I envy people who have careers where how they appear can affect the results of their interview.

For truly confident individuals it works automatically (good posture, solid handshake. But if you are not, you probably shouldn't fool people. Boost your confidence aside, one step per day and you'll never need to imitate it. Just be yourself.

The comments saying this is irrelevant are missing the point. Most interviewers probably aren t consciously looking for these things, but subconsciously all of these things make a difference whether you like or not, because we re all human.

I don't know man, I'm an artist, people don't care if I'm a completely nutjob or if a dress like a hobo, they show me a piano, I play like Liszt and I'm in. I feel sorry for the people that have to pretend to be someone else to get a job.

I love Joe Navarro's videos. I've watched a lot of them and the change in people's reactions when you use his tips are meaningful. Plus he's just such a great communicator (which makes sense given his specialty.

The takeaway is that this is to improve your chances, not guarantee a job.
If a company has candidates of equal talent, they have to dig deeper on how to narrow their selection down.

Body language DOES NOT EXIST! It's in the IMAGINATION of people who have nothing better to do! And they brainwash people that it's real so they can have a job doing nothing.

The only thing you need to win at a job interview, is to be related to someone.
Body language expert who conducts interviews, what a waste of schooling

Stop promoting idiots like these. you win a job interview by being yourself. If you can't win by being yourself, it's not the job you are looking for.

Make sure you find a job that doesn't care about your body language and appearance but rather about your skills and who you are as a person.
