What should I wear for my interview?

I'm a 15 year old guy going in for my first job interview tomorrow. It's at a retirement home and i'd be getting a job either serving food or washing dishes.

What should I wear?

I dont want to overdress, and I dont want to underdress.

    I don't think a suit would be necessary, but I would still wear dress slacks and a tie.

  • The worst thing you can do is underdress, because then you will look sloppy. If you overdress, you just look smart.

    I would go for something simple, you don't wnt to look like you've made a huge effort. Just a white shirt, black trousers and a black tie maybe (although the tie is optional.)

    It depends what sort of retirement home it is, but I'd go with a tie.

    Good luck, hope you get the job! :)

    Dress casual, wear what you would to a school function. Nice shirt, jeans and shoes or boots.

    a white shirt, black trousers, a black tie (any other color would look misplaced), and black shoes that are not sneakers or sandals.

    also make sure your hair is neat and you don't look like you just woke up.

    so pretty much...NO JEANS. OR SNEAKERS.

    good luck!!

    You don't want to look like your trying to hard especially for a weekend job, so just wear what you would normally wear daily.

    (As long as the clothes you have look decent)

    wear nice black pants with a white button down shirt, and if you want, a bow-tie or a tie.
