0 comments

Outfitting for an interview is quite a simple yet crucial thing in creating first impression at your probable place of work. It's not just what you wear but that earns you respect with your future employer. Being organized, keeping eye contact, and exuding confidence are key factors for securing a position during the interview. (For more Job Interview tips, have a look on my post JobInterview Tips & Interview Preparation). I've always believed that setting up a great first impression can open gates and produce opportunities you never knew were possible. Whether you are interviewing for the internship or probably starting fresh Career as part of your profession, putting together the excellent outfit can be a necessary ingredient in a recipe intended for success.

Before deciding what clothes to wear, you have to do research about the company you'll be meeting together with. Typically depending on the field, you may make a pretty good guess. Jobs like artistic job are normally more relaxed and casual, while positions in areas like banking demand a more buttoned up, professional appearance. If you are still not sure after your research, It’s better to wear professional dress. Appropriateness is usually a key. If in uncertainty, remember to be conventional and confident.

Most companies typically fall under two different groups of work-wear or outfits:   

1. Casual Dress Code.

There are companies that offer their employees to wear casual dresses. Casual attire can be a company's attitude toward their employees. Apple, Google, Adidas and Nike all have very casual, laidback dress codes. Although dressing up for a job interview in a casual office doesn’t mean you can wear whatever you want. Simple tips include avoid shorts, wear jeans, T-shirts, collar T-shirts. Casual offices are typically creative environments so you have little bit of freedom expressing yourself by your outfits. Smart casual outfit includes everything shown below

2. Formal Dress Code.

For a change, some companies allows their employees to wear casual wear on friday's. You can incorporate some accessories which can add personality to your dress and set you apart from other candidates. Few simple tips include keep your shoes and hairs clean and set, avoid flashy clothes, use of Neck-tie and be confident. Smart Formal includes everything shown below
