What do you wear to an interview with a temp agency?

Heyy :)

You want to look smart but maybe not too smart,

Part of preparing for a job interview is making sure you are going to come across as a good addition to their company. Appearances shouldn’t matter, but the plain fact is that you are often judged before you’ve even uttered a word.

• Not too casual - If you get the vibe that casual is OK then stay on the smart side of casual. Ripped jeans, threadbare t-shirts and scruffy trainers should all be left at home. A smart pair of jeans and an open necked shirt is the bare minimum that is expected.

• No headwear – Under no circumstances wear a cap, beanie or hoodie to an interview – you’ll look like you’ve got something to hide. There are obvious religious and medical exceptions to this rule.

• Get the right fit – If you’ve had to borrow an ill-fitting suit for an interview, or just generally like to wear your clothes a little too loose or tight, try and find something a little more regular.

• No flashing – Although it may work in certain industries, cleavage and midriffs should be covered up for job interviews. You should be relying on your other assets to secure you the role.

• Wacky ties – As hilarious as you think they are, your interviewer is unlikely to see you as a new fun addition to the team, instead seeing someone who’s not serious about the job.

• Don’t accessorise too much – remember you want your interviewer to be concentrating on what you’re saying, not the obscure purple broach you’re wearing.

• Subtle make up – You could use make-up to emphasise your eyes and mouth, but should steer clear of anything too outrageous.

• Strong odours – Too much perfume or too little deodorant can both be big turn offs, as can cigarette smells so make sure you smell nice, but neutral.

• Facial hair – The old phrase “Never trust anyone with a beard” is less adhered to nowadays so feel free to go in with your usual fur. However, do make sure it’s well trimmed and clean.

• Piercings and tattoos – Another feature that is increasingly common, and one unlikely to deter an employer. If you can’t remove them, keep any studs small and cover any offensive or obscene body art.

If you’ve had to come straight from work to go to the interview or need to return there afterwards, it’s possible that you will be in the workplace wearing completely different clothes than on a normal day.

If you want to avoid arousing suspicion see if you can get an outfit that’s easily adaptable for both purposes, or alternatively ask a friend who works nearby if you can leave your interview outfit at their office.

Good Luck :)xxx

Who got the job??

1] wear jeans if you want to work construction ONLY

2] always dress up a bit - better impression, and looks like you actually care if you get the job!!

3] a suit is good, OR a nice skirt or dress pants with a jacket

4] pretty, feminine [ modest ] top

5] hose - no bare legs

6] dress shoes - heels or flats

7] wear earrings, and a watch

8] do use deodorant and mouthwash, very little if any perfume/cologne

Try maxi skirts with the relative area slits those can look great on you! It doesn't matter if you have long legs or not only strut that skirt

I feel that skirts tend to either look kind of trashy or cheap if they are tight and short, or these are just the run of the mill jean skirts that are not necessarily sexy.
