Interview where? The king's palace??

It depends on the type of job involved. If you are going for the post of a news caster in any of the national TVs, wear Nigerian Native. Of course, you cant broadcast on NTA on suit. E no go work!

See my signature if you dey find job. Sign up. It is free!

Yes, if you are in the core of Northern Nigeria. I attended an interview for government job and most of the Hausa women wore native and looked good.

This is one fantasy I never got to fulfill, my next interview will definitely be in a native attire.

Please do it, and share your experience.

SmartMugu:
Of course. At least you're not going to the interview n.aked.
Be the first to try it, everyone else will be proud of you if you manage to get the job.
Cheers.

No

Why?

Isn't it mental slavery that our traditional attires are not acceptable for job interviews (going by NL responses)

Before colonization by our slave masters, what did we wear to work?

So, those that wear traditional attires to church or events are being unprofessional?

As long as it is smart and functional. We live in whiteman's world that is why everything that makes sense to him do make sense to us,even though it is not practical or sustainable reality to us.

If you like wear Agbada,na you sabi.

Anything wey you hear/see,take it like that.

Lolz maybe government job.... That your interview is just for formality sake

You can if you're the only expert in Nigeria suited for that job. In fact if you go naked you may still get the job.

famozair:
Is native attire allowed as dress code for interview...especially on Friday?....

Yes you can, i think the way the outfit is combined is what really matters. you don't have to put on very traditional wears. people put on jackets made from Ankara on Fridays and still look smart and corporate.

wow....Thanks for all your comments....over 11,000 viewers....Nairalander u are Great...
