Questions to Ask Yourself Before You Get Dressed for a Job Interview
You feel the jitters, specially for first time interviewees, but being prepared gives you enough confidence to face up to the challenge.
Most of the time, your main concern would be dressing up for the interview, what to wear and how to present yourself. Generally it’s good to wear a conservative suit for an interview, go with something simple, in neutral tone. Match your attire with your prospective job and keep in mind that you should dress a little better than you would for a day at work and make sure your clothes are neat and clean.
In all instances, wear closed-toe shoes, never wear sandals. Stick with conservative styles, black shoes match everything, women should not wear very high heels.
Nails should be clean. Men’s nails should be kept short and women’s nails should not be too long and kept bare or polished in neutral color. Make-up should be simple and in neutral colors.
Look professional; a woman can carry a small to medium sized handbag and a man may carry a briefcase as he wishes or a folder or portfolio.
