Create the right first impression by knowing exactly what to wear to your interview.
The safe standard interview dress for men is the classic dark business suit.
Other acceptable alternatives include a gray, charcoal or dark blue business suit. These suits can be worn with a white long-sleeve shirt. A white shirt gives the impression of authority.
If you prefer a colored shirt rather choose a light color that co-ordinates with the suit and is not overpowering. Image consultants suggest that a colored shirt can make you appear more friendly. Striped shirts are also an option.
Always wear a tie to your job interview. Your tie should coordinate with the colors you are wearing and be relatively conservative. The primary color of a patterned tie should complement your suit and the secondary color should pick up the color of your shirt.
Here are some basic guidelines when choosing your tie. Wear a tie that is darker than the color of your shirt and avoid a tie that is too bright. The knot of your tie should be in proportion to the collar of the shirt. The front point of your tie should just touch your belt line.
If you do not own a suit or if you are sure that the interview environment is more informal then you can wear a conservative sports coat or blazer and a pair of well-tailored and pressed slacks.
Match the outfit with a either a white or colored long-sleeve shirt with a collar and tie. Always wear a belt and well-polished smart shoes.
Your interview dress will have a major impact on how you are perceived by the interviewer. What you wear will be a reflection of your professionalism, commitment and your ability to fit in with the corporate culture.
