The weird science behind first impressions

If there’s one thing I’ve learned over the past five years of working as a journalist it’s that success can come down to the two seconds after you first meet someone. First impressions can make or break your career. I’ve had key interviews go to hell just because something didn’t feel right from the start. It’s frustrating because it’s out of your control and no matter how hard you try, once someone has passed initial judgment on you, there’s almost no way to change their mind.
