It�s sad but true � some people spend more time trying
to decide what to wear to the interview than in any other
preparation step.
The best advice I have for you is to discover how the people
in the position you�re applying for typically dress...
then dress in that way or a bit more professionally.
Some companies have casual days.
Be sure that your impression of how they dress is not based
on seeing them on one of these casual days.
Some general guidelines for management positions are:
First, wear a suit.
For men, that means a matching blazer and slacks with a solid
colored shirt and conservative necktie.
For women, that means a matching blazer and skirt and
coordinating blouse.
Second, polish your shoes. You�d be amazed at the number
of interviewers who will take a quick glimpse at your shoes
when they meet you. Perhaps your attention to
detail is reflected in how well you care for your shoes.
Third, have clean and neatly filed fingernails.
Fourth, wear a watch, and limit the other jewelry
you wear.
Fifth, avoid perfume or cologne.
This is a job interview, not a date.
And finally, make sure that you do not smell
like cigarette smoke.
