When searching for a job, practicing your interview skills are key.Not only is it important to do your research about the company and role you're applying for, you've also got to nail your body language and social skills for your best chance at securing the position.The stress of interviews can be a lot to handle, especially if you really want the job - but one woman has shared one mistake that a candidate made that meant he had "no chance" of being hired.On the 'Life Pro Tips' forum on Reddit, she warned readers to ensure they treat everyone with respect.She wrote: "Today, a candidate blew his interview in the first 5 minutes after he entered the building."He was dismissive to the receptionist.

She greeted him and he barely made eye contact."She tried to engage him in conversation. Again, no eye contact, no interest in speaking with her."What the candidate did not realize was that the "receptionist" was actually the hiring manager."She called him back to the conference room and explained how every single person on our team is valuable and worthy of respect."Due to his interaction with the "receptionist," the hiring manager did not feel he was a good fit.

Thank you for your time but the interview is over."Be nice to everyone in the building."In the thread's comments, most people agreed that being polite to everyone should always be a priority during job interviews.

One person wrote: "BINGO! After a candidate leaves one of the first things those involved in the interview will do is speak to the receptionist and ask them how the interviewee treated them."The person could be the best person for the position but if they treated the receptionist like c***.....THEY ARE DONE!"If they treated the receptionist like s*** when on
