Why Does It Work?

The Triangle Method works because it allows you to maintain eye contact without intense staring, which can be intimidating. By shifting your gaze between the person's eyes and brows, you can keep the conversation going while avoiding the uncomfortable feeling of prolonged eye contact. This technique also makes you appear more confident and likable by demonstrating that you are engaged and interested in the conversation.

Still not convinced? Well according to a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, maintaining eye contact is related to likability and perceived trustworthiness. This suggests that using the Triangle Method to maintain eye contact during an interview can help you appear likable and trustworthy, increasing your chances of getting the job.

This evidence is supported further by the Journal Personality and Individual Differences, which discovered that maintaining eye contact can improve the perceived quality of communication and lead to more positive outcomes in negotiations. This suggests that the Triangle Method can help you improve the perceived quality of communication during an interview, increasing your chances of making a good impression and landing the job.
