Interview Tips
First impressions are made in less than a minute, often before a person even opens his or her mouth to speak. Yes, it is true: We are a visual society and how you look coming into the interview can definitely affect the outcome, no matter how well prepared you are or how well you answer the tough questions.
When you take the initiative and make an effort to look good for the interview, you demonstrate that you are going to be a positive representative of the company. You are someone who pays attention to detail, and you are someone who respects the interview process and the interviewers.
You may have heard to dress for "one step above the position." Some recommend that you always wear a suit to an interview. This is good advice in general; however, you need to use your best judgment. Your geographical location and the local business climate will influence how you dress for the interview. That said, it is better to be overdressed than underdressed. You really cannot make a fool of yourself overdressing unless you show up in formal attire.
In general, the following tips will help you determine what to wear to almost any interview. If in doubt, always err on the conservative side. Once you are employed, you will gain a feel for the company culture; until that time, do not risk appearing too casual, as this can hurt your chances of obtaining the job offer. Those in creative fields may have a little more leeway, but again, a polished, professional look will work well in almost every situation. Those seeking employment in creative industries may need to put a little more thought or creative energy into their interview attire; for these people, it may essential to be "up" on current fashion trends. For most, however, sticking with the basics will work just fine.
Wear dark or neutral colors. Dark is best, but may be inappropriate in some situations or seasons. Khakis and neutral colors are the next best option, but generally, aim for navy and dark gray. Avoid bright or flashy colors, as they are distracting and can give the impression that you are unprofessional. Aim for simplicity as well, wearing clothes with clean, classic lines. A no-frills look means business.
We express ourselves by the clothes we wear, our hairstyles, and how we present ourselves in general. It is perfectly understandable to want to express who you are in an interview as well. But keep in mind that an attitude of "they can take me as I am or leave me" may result in your being "left" too often. For the interview, it is best to err on the conservative side. You can always put your piercings back in or wear the funky shoes if you later determine that the company culture can handle it. Otherwise, these things may be best left for evenings and weekends.
"Business casual" means something different to nearly every person you talk to. Some companies have strict dress codes, while some have virtually none. It is up to you to determine what you are comfortable with and what you can live with on a daily basis as far as company culture and policies are concerned.
Time your arrival so that you arrive a bit before the scheduled start time. This allows you time to deal with any unforeseen delays, and you can use those few minutes beforehand to gather your thoughts and review your notes of accomplishments, strengths, and questions for the interviewer.
Take a few mints with you even if you do not need them. Having them on hand can boost your confidence. Just be sure to finish the mint before the interview so you will not have anything in your mouth when you walk in the door. Gum is absolutely out.
