I Have An Interview But No Suit/jacket by NigelCundy: 12:32pm On Aug 27, 2018
URGENT:
I have an interview on Wednesday at one of the top firms in Nigeria but I do not have a suit at the moment because I can't afford one. Can I wear a shirt, tie and chinos/pant? What other combinations could sit well without a suit? Please I need opinion of HR specialists

It's either you go with the advice above or you pm me, let's get you a jacket, since you already have a trouser pant.
I'm in lag.

Good luck

You can also go with a tie, a clean,crisp long sleeve and and a good trouser. Make sure your colour combo is excellent. A well polished shoe too.
You are good to go. A suit is not a guarantee that you will clinch the Job.
Good luck

Hey Guy!! whilst looking for a suit, Try and Google what's the company into, their mission and vision, their competitors...also check out the original advertisement posted by the company and read thoroughly the job description outlined in the advert,if any...in all believe in yourself and make sure you arrive there 30 mins before the interview.. Good Luck!!

Wearing suit does not get you the job.

Telling the interviewers how you can add value to their organisation, improve and add value to their processes, how your presence in the position gives an edge over competitors etc, etc gets you the job.

Be smartly dressed with what you have.
