Impression management is a process that occurs in a conscious or unconscious way, that occurs when a person tries to influence the impression of others about an object, an event or a person, by controlling information that is shared in a social interaction.

For a job interview, for example, impression management must take the form of the personal positioning that the person will have to make a good first impression on the interviewer and consequently get the job, so ideally, the person should dress appropriately, be cordial and respectful to demonstrate seriousness and ability to do well in the interview, in addition to providing important information about your professional profile, your achievements, and your values, demonstrating that they are compatible with those of the company and that therefore you are the appropriate professional to fill that position.
