Are you searching for a new job or career change? If you are or planning to in the future then it's very likely that you will come into contact with a number of very different individuals, from a number of different companies all working in different levels of management. No matter who it is that you are dealing with, it is important that you stay polite to people at all times. A good way to comprehend how important been polite is, is to place yourself in the other persons position, as an example imagine you were the one searching for a new employee and you had two applicants to interview. One of which responds with "please" and "thank you" while the other just spoke to you as if the whole thing was a waste of time, which individual would you go for? It's most likely that you would pick the polite and well mannered candidate. Generally employers desire respectable and polite people for their workforce.
A good polite employee can help a business grow. This is very true when direct customer contact is required as part of the job. As an example in the retail sector an employee with a bad attitude can cause distress to the customers who will in turn take their custom somewhere else, where as a nice polite employee will make the shopper feel good and happy with the company. That is the same reason why it is important to be polite when dealing with all potential employers as they will be looking at how you deal with people, no matter which kind of industry you are interested in working in.
When you apply for a job its important to be polite at all times and not just at the interview, this is a slip-up many job seekers make as they think the only person they have to impress is the interviewer. This is a big mistake because after you have left the interviewer may well ask other people such as the receptionist about your attitude. It is also very important to be polite when speaking to anyone over the phone as you might not be aware of who it is you are talking to, or how well they are acquainted with the management. In short whether you are having a discussion with a secretary or head manager you should always be polite and courteous.
