Before you say a single word to the interviewer, you have already made an impression based on how you’re dressed. The guidelines given here are commonly accepted as appropriate for interviewing. Women Job Interview Attire Basics for women When it come to ladies they have many choices to dress up for the D-day. Saree In sync with Indian culture Saree still stands as the best dress for the interview and office. Many of the Bschools have moved to Saree as their formal compulsory dress for final placements. Wearing a simple Saree can make u look confident for the interview. Suit A dark, two-piece, gray, navy or black suit is your best option when interviewing with a conservative company. Compliment it with a light colored blouse or cotton shirt. Steer clear from strapless, spaghetti straps and well-worn tees under the jacket. Women can wear a black suit easier than men because they can lighten the look with a soft colored blouse and accessories. Skirt suit. A skirt suit instead of pantsuit is generally an acceptable choice for a job interview as well. If skirt suits you a skirtsuit will definately make u stand apart. Shirt and Trousers A white or light colored, tailored shirt is an interview staple. Shirt should be plain or stripes please avoid checks polka dots or printed shirts. Dark colored trousers will go with any light colored shirts. Punjabi Suit Simple smart indian suit can also do the trick. Punjabi Suit with dupatta is also considered as a good formal wear for the interviews. When in doubt, ask the recruiter or students or Career Service counselor at college you are applying for their suggestions and advice. It’s always better to arrive slightly overdressed than underdressed. but always wear something which makes u look formal sober yet independent but above all comfortable. remember you are going to be in that dress for almost 10 hours including travel and wait times. Accessories Dress up your look with a necklace or other piece of conservative jewelry. Socks. Select a sheer or nude color that is close to your own skin tone. Shoes. A mid heel, closed-toe pump is a safe choice. Regardless of the current shoe trends, your shoe selection for a job interview should be professional and understated. Details that Matter -Leather purse or briefcase; carry one or the other, not both -Manicured nails with a neutral polish -Make up; even minimal makeup is an indicator that you value your professional image -Neatly groomed hair, worn away from the face -Clean and polished shoes (Pay special attention to heels and soles) -Conservative watch with a link or leather band -minimum jewellery Don’ts for Women -Short skirt or extreme form fitting garments -Textured, patterned or bright colored hosiery -Wet hair -Strong perfume or heavily scented body products -Distracting or noisy jewelry -Visible body piercings and tattoos (Cover tattoos with a band aid or flesh colored tape) -Jeans, t-shirts, sneakers, canvas slip-ons -Sunglasses worn as a headband -Exposed technology; turn off cell phone and keep out of sight -Carrying a book bag rather than briefcase Men Power dressing for Men Frankly there are not many choices for dressing for men. Most of the questions I get from students are should I wear tie or not simple. But on the other hand it leaves you with more time to prepare for the interview than focusing on what to wear. Business Suit Suit means the works. a matching jacket and pants, dress shirt, tie, coordinating socks and dress shoes. A dark-colored suit with light colored shirt is your best option. Your suit should be comfortable and fit you well so that you look and act your best. Business suit is different from one we wear at weddings. Avoid loud colors, printed ones and flashy ties. Shirt and Trousers A white or light colored, ironed shirt is an interview staple for men. Shirt should be ideally be light colored plain or stripes please avoid checks or printed shirts. Dark colored black grey trousers will go with any light colored shirts. Match it up with a formal tie slim fit tie is in thing today. Interview dressing for men Do care for: – Clothing should be neat, clean, and pressed. Shower or bathe the morning of the interview. – Wear mild deodorant. – Don’t wear strong cologne or aftershave. – Make sure you have fresh breath. – Brush your teeth before you leave for the interview, and don’t eat before the interview. – Don’t smoke right before an interview. – Your hair should be neat, clean, and conservative. – Do shave before the interview though beard is in today but still shaved men are always considered to be clean. – Shoes should be black or brown well-polished and in good condition, not scuffed or run-down at the heels.
