“You never get a second chance to make a first impression”

Knowing what to wear on a job interview is half the battle of the interview itself.   Your appearance is extremely important.

Some guidelines which may help:-

• Make sure your clothes are neatly ironed and pressed.  Nothing gives away the lack of attention to detail  than wrinkled clothing.
• Make sure your clothing fits properly.
• Don’t wear flashy jewellery.  You want the interviewer to pay attention to you and not your bling.
• Dress according to the season.
• Don’t wear perfume or aftershave.  You never know if the interviewer is allergic to this.
• Nice clean haircut – make sure you’re well groomed.
• For men, keep facial hair to a minimum.
• For women, don’t wear anything that is too revealing.  It’s best to keep your body parts inside your clothing and not to be exposed.
• Don’t overdo your makeup.  Wear natural colours and avoid heavy eye shadow and eyeliner.
• Make sure the colour of your belt matches the colour of your shoes
