Results and Impact Information obtained during interviews can be critical and it is therefore necessary that we are aware of what people reveal through nonverbal visual cues in addition to what they tell us verbally. Visual communication cues such as hand gestures, facial expressions and eye gaze are central to human communication and although we 'read' these cues in day to day interactions there is considerable information contained within them that remains essentially hidden.
