How To Dress When Attending A Job Interview by macho44(m): 6:45am On Jul 24, 2015
What to wear for an interview has always been a challenge for most job-seekers round the globe. Is the attire corporate enough? Is it flamboyant or too conventional? These and other myriads of questions flood the already turbulent mind of the job seeker.

The fact is that the attire you wear for an interview goes a long way in telling about your personality and perharps landing you the job. Before going for an interview it is always proper to find out how the dress code of the interviewing firm’s staffs on business days and weekends or ask the the human resource desk of the company what to put on for the interview.

It should be noted that when going for “INTERVIEWS”,you must be on suits . To dress otherwise is to put yourself at the disadvantageous end. It doesn’t matter if it is a conventional or modern firm. You must be on suit and NEVER on casuals. It doesn’t matter if you are male or female. You must BE ON SUIT.

The Four Corporate Colours:

In the interview arena, there are four recognized corporate colours for the job seeker or prospective employee. These colours are Black, Dark, Grey, Ash or Dark brown. They could be either striped or plain. Avoid and reserve purple, red and green colours for weddings and other ceremonies.corporate wears

And most importantly, your shirt should always be white when going for interview. Even if it's bakery interview or a canteen interview, black suit and white shirt

If I hear.
The type of company you're applying for determines how you will dress, I hv seen someone that went to an interview on jeans and shirt and got the job.

If you want wear monkey suit, Japanese suit, 6pcs suit, even that kind suit Koreans de wear and you hv coconut head you are OYO.

Lol. A guy came in for an engineering trainee interview somewhere in the North Central in a native attire. No jokes. Interesting enough, the guy got the job ahead of guys fully suited up. grin grin.

But please don't try this at home, that was a case of one in 10,000. If you do, you are on your own.

If you go to dubai do they wear suit? Indians wear their punjabi's even as bankers or parliamentarians we degrade our own culture to promote oyibo who has no culture. There is nothing wrong with wearing traditional attire for interviews esp for ladies.
