Introduction
This is Camille. She’s going to talk about career hacks—skills that can help you find success in your future career.
How do you get yourself onto a path to a successful career? It really comes down to two things:
- deciding what you want to do
- developing the skills you’ll need to get there
You'll need to set your goals yourself, but we can help you with the skills. Let’s start right now—with nonverbal communication skills.

Jot down your ideas to answer the following questions:
- What kinds of actions and behaviors might fall into the category of nonverbal communication?
- What impressions do people have about you when they first meet you? What are these ideas based on?
