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

wear a pant, and get a cardigan in place of jacket. all these V neck cardigan should do. a blue or black.


all in all. best of luck sir

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

Go with this

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

Out of seven men wearing new suit, i got my first job without wearing one. Just believe in yourself and be bold

Just try and look corporate... Absence of suit doesn't mean u can't be corporate.. I once attended an interview with France soccer jersy and I got the Job....story for another day..

guy be honest and tell them the truth.if they refuse,cry very well, they will accept you

I love Nairalanders for this candid support and advice.

Make I comot here. Na beta people dey here.

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.

Come and give update later

And I believe it's gonna be sweet testimony.

GOOD LUCK Bro.

Go with your God bro. Your dressing won't get you the job.
