Part One- What to Wear!
First impressions are everything! Even the color choices you make can potentially separate you from the competition. A good rule of thumb: Everything they see CAN and WILL be held against you!
According to Hired My Way, the way we dress, specifically the colors we choose, can subconsciously effect people's "emotional impressions and even physical responses." One tip for choosing what to wear is to ask what the dress environment is like when you get called in for the interview. Keep in mind: It's ALWAYS bad to be underdressed but can also be the same for being overdressed.
Finishing touches:
Once the outfit has been chosen, you want to make sure that you look completed and polished. This includes (mostly for the ladies) hair and nails! You never want to give up your own personal style for anyone, but always keep in mind the type of position you're applying for.
Below, we have included images to refer back to and the link to Hired My Way's blog that can better aid you in your color choices for the big day!
Ultimately, dress for the job you WANT! Prepare a little beforehand and be confident in what you choose! If you feel like you look great, it'll show!
