Dress professionally, like pants and a nice shirt or a matching shirt and skirt outfit. Be courteous to people who come in the door, like offering them a chair to sit, or something to drink. Use professional manners over the phone, like "may I say who's calling?" instead of "who's this?" Know who your boss is and how they like things (reports stapled or in a folder.) Act like you're making more money than what you are. Like in down time don't surf on the internet, just find things to do or clean. Ask for more work if your bored. Be confident, know your company's mission inside and out, and always make a good impression on those around you. Usually you are the first person that people see or hear when they call or come by the office. If you follow these things, you will do well.

You need to be friendly and outgoing at all times. A good attitude is a must. A professional phone manner. You also need to dress well because you will be the first person clients will see when they walk through the door.They may base what they think of your company on how you present youself!!You will also need excellent computer skills.Hope this helps and good luck!!

As far as your office attire - nothing too short or too low cut (obviously) I usually stick to dress pants so I don't have to worry about my skirts. Look around at your coworkers and see what they are wearing. Some offices are dressy, other are more casual.
Be on time, do the best job you can, always be friendly with clients (and don't call them hon, I hate it when they do that), and act honestly and ethically and you shouldn't have any problems.

appearance is very important. always smiling. get a professional look. dont get a sexy look. that might distract people from what you are saying? people have an idea that receptionist are either dumb girl or gay guys. so becareful from that stereo typing.
being professional is important. be yourself. listen what people has to say about you. listening is more important than speaking. patience.

Know as far as qualifications?

You need to be very familiar with different computers and programs, I'd say more specifically Microsoft programs. Seeing as how you'll more than likely be using one to do general office work etc. You must have a clear and well spoken telephone voice as you will be their main hub of communication.
