In addition to posture while standing, the causes and meanings of various sitting and head postures as well as the shoulders and torso are described and dealt with against the background of the job interview. Finally, key elements of one’s own posture and their possible applications in recruiting are listed and basic exercises are described with which the recruiter can improve his or her own posture.
