Etiquette

First impressions, as we all know, are extremely important. The manners we have (or lack) at the lunch table or at the conference table can make or break that vital first impression.
Do you have proper business etiquette?

How Do We Make Proper Introduction
 

  • If you have an appointment with someone at noon, what time should you arrive?
  • Is it acceptable to wear cologne/perfume in an interview or at the workplace?
  • When dining, how do you know which utensils to use?
  • What is the proper way to eat bread?
  • When do you begin eating?
  • If you must excuse yourself from the table momentarily, where should you place your napkin?
  • Is it acceptable to exchange business cards while dining?
  • If you are unsure of any of the answers to the above questions, make a point to attend one of our etiquette workshops.
  • Winthrop Career Development offers free workshops to train you in all aspects of the job search.  Check out our other workshop topics.
