Business Attire

The first thing a future employer will notice about you is your attire. You want to make sure you are wearing professional business attire. There are a few primary things to remember about dressing for an interview:

1. Keep it simple. Don't load up on jewelry or scents, but do make sure you put on deodorant and have good breath.

2. Be clean and pulled together. Apparel should fit correctly, be clean and be neatly pressed. Hair should be neat.

3. Be conservative. Long hair should be pulled back, tattoos should be covered, piercings (other than earrings) should be removed, and the only skin showing should be on your hands, neck and face.

4. Be comfortable. Wear your suit and shoes at least once before your interview.

5. Show up to the interview early and find a bathroom. Study yourself in the mirror, and make sure you look your best.
