You might not believe us when we say your bizarre sense of dressing style can cost you your job. But it does.
The one easy way of making an impression on your potential employees is by dressing your best when you are on interview. Forget jeans, sneakers, piercings, spiked hair, trousers down below your hips, rippled clothes and chewing gums.
Here are few dressing styles for men and women.
Women's Interview Attire
* Solid color, conservative suit
* Coordinated blouse
* Moderate shoes
* Limited jewelry
* Neat, professional hairstyle
* Sparse make-up & perfume
* Manicured nails
* Portfolio or briefcase
Men's Interview Attire
* Solid color, conservative suit
* White long sleeve shirt
* Conservative tie
* Dark socks, professional shoes
* Very limited jewelry
* Neat, professional hairstyle
* Go easy on the aftershave
* Neatly trimmed nails
* Portfolio or briefcase
What we want to imply here is that, candidates do not get the job because of what they wear for the interview but they sure damage their chances of success by dressing inappropriately. Use your knowledge of the profession to make the right judgment call on how you should dress for an interview.
Remember- the first judgment an interviewer makes is going to be based on what you are wearing.
Dress to Impress. Make not just a good impression; make a great one.
