What to Wear....What to Wear?

Going on an interview anytime soon? Or maybe you're attending the Career Expo on February 7th.  If so, you may be trying to figure out what you should wear on this important occasion.  Does it matter?  It sure does!!!

First impressions are huge!  The second the interviewer sets sights on you, their first judgement will be based on how look and what you are wearing.  If you want to make a great impression, I say men should wear a suit (yes even if the work environment is going to be casual), and women in a suit or a suit skirt.  Let me get a bit more specific.

For Men:
-Wear a suit
-wear a long sleeve button down shirt
-Wear a belt
-Wear a tie
-Dark socks (no white socks)
-Clean cut
-No jewelery (or very minimal)

For the Women:
-Suit or Suit skirt (not too short)
-Coordinated blouse
-Conservative shoes
-Minimal jewelery
-Hair styled

Tips for All:
-Go light on the perfume or cologne
-Don't chew gum
-Leave your cell phone in the car
-Don't bring in any food or drink
-Cover tattoos

Good luck!
