Focus your answer on specific courses you have taken, podcasts you listen to, or articles or books you have read on body language. The interviewer wants to hear that you are interested in learning about this essential skill used in investigations.

If you have not taken any courses in reading body language, you want to avoid saying you have. If you say you have taken courses in body language, the interviewer may ask questions about what you learned. It is always best to be 100% candid in interviews as the interviewer will find out if you were dishonest, disqualifying you from being offered the position.

"Yes, I took a course on reading body language when receiving my bachelor's degree in criminology five years ago. I also attended an online course two years ago that covered reading body language and the cultural and social influence of nonverbal clues. The course was very informative, and I learned many new aspects about body language and deception during interviews and interrogations."

"No, I have not taken any courses on reading body language yet, but I will learn about this skill next semester when attending college to receive my associate's degree. I have read a book on body language called 'The Definitive Book of Body Language,' which covered reading body language clues and how to adjust my body language when speaking with people. I found the book to be very informative and interesting, and I look forward to learning more in college."
