Dressing for interviews

The basic rule or common sense is no longer common.

Nowadays we can see people going to interviews wearing jeans, t-shirts, round-necks and short skirts. The thing is that, you can proceed if the company you are going for the interview is absolutely okay and you have sensibly checked with their receptionist/human resource department.

In one of my many intervieweing sessions, I have met this one guy which is a fresh graduate. He walked into the room with confident and shook my hands. My first impression was okay until I noticed that he was wearing a round neck shirt and of course, with no tie attached.

I conducted the interview like any other and just before summing it all up, asked him about his shirt. He explained to me since he was a fresh graduate, he has no other shirt and he borrowed that one from his brother.

You see, in situations like these, you can jeorpadise your chances of being considered for the post EVEN if you dresses inappropriately. Potential jobseekers out there, dress right! It's your future!
