Smart and classic is what you should aim for. |
 |
Always try for a navy blue, dark grey or black suit, white or blue shirt and keep the white socks for the running track! |
 |
Ties are a reflection of your personality but should be appropriate to the occasion. An imprinted tie of Homer Simpson will give the interviewer a feeling that you may not be altogether a serious character! |
 |
Well polished shoes are the small details that many interviewers look for |
 |
Take out all earrings and excessive jewellery – conservative is the key! |
 |
Someone who takes care of themselves is likely to take care of a good job, so personal hygiene is very important! Clean-shaven or well-trimmed beards and moustaches, clean nails and tidy hair are all essential. Oh and try not to overdose on the aftershave! |
 |
A smart briefcase or simple folder for your C.V. and certificates is much more preferable than a plastic bag or crumpled sheets of paper. |
 |
Do remember this isn’t a fashion show. Trendy and modern are good signs but should always be tempered with a classic, business look. |
 |
Safe bets are always suits (skirt or trousers) and an appropriate blouse. Skirts should always be kept to “appropriate” lengths, preferably knee-length. |
 |
Try to keep jewellery to a minimum, with earrings limited to one pair. |
 |
Subtle make-up is the answer and do pay particular attention to the colour and condition of your nail polish and lipstick. |
 |
Hair should be clean and tidy and above all, under control! |
