 Dressing inappropriately for an interview can actually prevent you from getting hired for that particular job. It is imperative that you make a good first impression when you go for your job interview. Here are some valuable tips for dressing appropriately for an interview.
APPROPRIATE INTERVIEW ATTIRE
You should keep in mind that you will need to dress in professional business attire for your initial interview, regardless of the company's dress code within the facility. Both men and women should dress appropriately and look professionally groomed for your interview. Once hired you can then conform to the dress code permitted for that particular company (e.g. casual dress, company uniforms, jean Fridays), but not before then.
MEN
Men should wear a navy blue, black, or dark gray business suit with a necktie. And should wear dark shoes and dark colored sox. You should wear minimum cologne and jewelry. You don't want to cause any major distractions during your interview so you should avoid wearing body piercing, nor should you show any body tattoos. If you have visible body tattoos, you will be able to cover them with a long sleeve shirt, a suit jacket, and slacks.
WOMEN
Woman should wear a navy blue, black, or gray conservative pant suit or skirt suit. Dark comfortable closed-toe conservative shoes will do fine. You should avoid wearing loud perfumes and wear minimum jewelry. Cover any body tattoos with a long sleeve conservative jacket and pant so that they are not visible.
INTERVIEW
So now that you are dressed appropriately, you can go to your interview with poise and confidence. You will make a good first impression and increase your chances of getting that job. You should proofread your resume carefully to make sure that it is free of grammatical and typographical errors. And be sure to do some thorough research on the company beforehand. Also, don't forget to turn off your cell phone before you begin your interview.
Much Success!
TIPS
Utilize the spell-check before printing your resume. Have someone proofread your resume for you.
Some companies will allow BUSINESS casual attire for interviewees, I suggest you inquire beforehand- if in doubt go for professional business attire as stated above (see illustrations).
Never wear jeans to an interview! Never wear gym shoes, if needed for comfort while traveling, be sure to remove them before your interview.
