Tips for Dressing for Success!

What you wear may just set you apart from other during an interview.

Here are some helpful tips you could use for making a great first impression in an interview.

Types of Business Attire

1. Business Casual - A casual, but professional look usually a button down with khakis and dress shoes.
2. Business Formal - A more formal look made to impress (for example, a suit and tie with dress shoes).

Tips for Dressing to Impress

• Dress for the job you want to get.  Depending on the type of job you're applying for, you should dress appropriately.  For example, applying for a retail job is much more casual than applying for a job at Wall Street. If you are applying for retail, go with something more business casual and if applying for a white collar job, you should go for the business formal look.
• Groom yourself.  First impressions are a major key to getting hired. So whether your job is retail or business, always come in looking good. Some examples of this are: a clean shave, haircut, and trimmed nails.
• Do not wear any strong cologne or perfume.
• Wear appropriate colors (for example: navy, grey or black).
