First, some statistics. According to surveys of 2,000 HR specialists, 55% of employers focus on the clothes of the candidate at the first meeting.
35% of employers make a decision on the applicant within the first 90 seconds, while 65% admitted - appearance may be a determining factor.
70% of employers do not take candidates dressed too fashionably seriously. Absolutely everyone spoke out against bright clothes.
What not
1. I feel so comfortable
Of course, clothes should be comfortable. Cotton and linen fabrics, natural wool and loose fit - a huge selection of stylish and inexpensive things. There is nothing wrong with comfortable clothes.
But we are talking about jeans worn down to holes, stretched T-shirts and slates (and even on the toe) - great for going to the store, not at all suitable for business meetings.
We advise you to start a business outfit for important events - an anniversary, a friend's wedding, an interview.
2. I went out for bread, went for an interview
Yes - it's hot, yes - it's the 21st century in the yard, and nobody cares what you're wearing, but no.
Beach sundresses, shorts and sportswear are left at home. If things are planned before the interview, choose - to bathe in business or to run home to change clothes. No more options.
3. Personality
Even if the interview is held in a company that is democratic in terms of appearance, it is better not to shock the employer on the very first day.
Calm make-up, tidy hair, hide tattoos as much as possible and choose the most neutral clothes - let nothing distract you from talking about work.
How to choose a style
When choosing clothes for an interview, you always need to consider the specifics of the organization. For bookkeeping - a tight tightly closed shirt, a skirt below the knees and a low heel, for an IT company - jeans and a T-shirt are quite suitable.
How to find out how serious a company is? Google to the rescue:
The site of the company. If the site design is designed in strict colors, youth clothing is not an option;
The company's social network (even baking soda has an Instagram account). Watch how employees dress;
The specifics of the organization. If the company is engaged in metallurgy or legal services, most likely the director is a serious man. Buy a jacket.
What to wear - the visual part
And now we come to the main thing - the pictures!
Prepared a couple of onions for a successful interview.
Business suit
Official black suits have long gone out of fashion - replaced by light and light.
