Dress For The Job Interview - 5 Smart Tips

It might seem to be amazing stupidity, but many people put huge efforts into preparing the best resume they possibly can in order to get to the job interview stage and then almost totally ignore the question of the most effective job interview dress to wear.


Don't you be one of them! This article will give you five simple but effective tips to help you make the ideal first impression with your prospective new boss


  1. Don't forget the shoes! Think your shoes won't be noticed? Think again. Many savvy managers will look there first. Why? Because this is the area that slovenly and lazy people tend to forget about first. Make sure they are freshly polished. with new shoelaces (if applicable). And also make certain that they are 'business' style shoes


  2. Nothing garish or 'loud'. Think twice before putting on that red and purple striped tie, no matter how cool you think it looks! Subdued greys, navy-blues and blacks always go down well.


  3. Ladies - never (I really do mean never) wear anything overly revealing. Skirts should reach to just above the knee and never slit. Definitely no plunging necklines. You might think it looks nice, but employers will see you as a threat to workplace stability. Matching business attire is the ideal choice


  4. Guys - wear a tie. If you don't have one then borrow one. Yes, I know they're archaic and uncomfortable, but unfortunately they are expected. Ideally you should be wearing a two-piece business suit and the tie should match it.


  5. Remember your personal hygine - yikes what a subject to have to bring up, but an amazing number of people turn up for an interview with an odour of sweaty armpits hanging around them. Have a shower before the interview and also brush your teeth and use a mouthwash. Also (of course) make certain that your clothes are freshly laundered or dry-cleaned.


Follow the above job interview dress tips and you'll be making the best possible start to your interview success. Remember, you never get a second chance to make a first impression!
