What to wear for the Job Interview-The Right Corporate Attire for Women
In our professional lives, we have to meet clients and sometimes if our designation and job profile so demands, have to be a part of an interview panel, grilling new applicants. There are no specific dress codes with regard to those who are a part of job interviews, but yes, no matter which side of the interview table you are on, you can always follow certain guidelines to look your best.
Club attire should never be confused with work wear. If you feel you can wear a particular attire to the club or when you are out pubbing with friends, you cannot wear it to work when your are interviewing job candidates or are being interviewed yourself. Pant suits are the most preferred choice as they are comfortable while travelling and also exude the right blend of style and professionalism. Some women also prefer the skirt suits but the length of the skirt should not be too short for comfort. High slits and mini-skirts can be way too distracting. The shirts you wear should not be too frilly or revealing. Decent necklines and well tailored blouses are recommended. Black, brown, dark gray and navy blue are the best colors which compliment most skin tones. But, if you prefer lighter colors, you can experiment with fawn, cream and light blue too.
While accessorizing, you can opt for scarves also. Bags should not be too big or flashy and vibrant. Try to coordinate the color of your bag with your footwear. Avoid tote bags and cinch-packs. Stick to leather as it looks business-like. Closed-toe shoes are the best but do not over do with the heel part as chunky high heels, stilettos and noisy shoes make you look unprofessional. Keep your jewelry bare minimum and so should be your make-up. Exude style and feel comfortable and you will be sure to create the right impression.
