Appropriate Dress for the Interview

   After tailoring all your resumes to the companies you are trying to apply for, make sure you don't idle yourself. If you need to turn in your application with your resume, make sure you have the right attire. I highly recommend that you dress in a professional manner even if the task is only to turn in your application. As discussed in getting an application, one may never know that he or she could get the interview on the spot. Here's a link to a short video about how to dress for an interview: Dress Appropriately. This video does focus on men, but I believe it relates to women as well.

You can also find the casual work attire versions here.

For women, do not dress to seduce, but dress to impress. Here are some suggestions for your professional attire section of your closet:

• dress shirts and/or blouses
• pencil skirt
• dress pants
• blazer or plain coordinating cardigan

 Make sure you dress accordingly to the position you are applying for. As mentioned in the video link above, if you are applying for a more artistic or fashion-related occupation, dress the part. If in doubt, always remember: over-dressed is better than under-dressed in an interview situation.
