They say that you only get one chance to make a first impression. True enough, the human brain loves leaping to conclusions, so whether you're walking into a job interview or putting yourself out there on a first date, there's a lot of power in that initial assessment. It might even be the deciding factor in getting a job offer or a second date. This begs the question: How can you ensure you're making a good first impression rather than a disappointing one?
To break it down, we trawled through research and even reached out to a professional. Glam spoke exclusively to New York City-based relationship expert and bestselling author Susan Winter, who provides intuitive, thought-based dating advice, and Winter was quick to acknowledge the significance of any inaugural meeting. "First impressions are immensely important, especially because so many people are dating online. You have only a few seconds to capture someone's attention," the expert warned us.
In other words, you need to come into every new relationship — romantic, professional, or otherwise — with your A-game ready. But what does that really look like? Between Winter's guidance and studies from the scientific community, we've identified some key moves that will help you nail a good first impression in any setting.
