Fashion Tricks For Your Next Interview
Although your appearance is not the most important thing in a job
interview, applying too much makeup or having the wrong accessories can
hurt your chances of getting the job.
Interview Fashion Tricks
Here are four tips to consider before your next interview.
1. Wear Something You’re Confident In
First of all, if you never wear a dress, costume, or skirt in your leisure time,
you should not start wearing one for an interview. There are also
fashionable business clothes from Accra out there if that’s more your
style. During an interview, it’s always better to stay true to yourself since
you are very excited (and sometimes even insecure).
2. Find The Right Shoes
Feel as comfortable as possible – even if it’s a challenge to find the right
shoes for a job interview. They should neither make you nor your legs extremely
long, as you want to convince with your skills and not your looks, right? (And
twisting your ankle when stepping into the office might not be the most
professional look, so just keep it on the down low.)
3. Dress Like Your Future Colleagues
If you don’t know if a business suit and heeled shoes will be the right choice,
sit down in a nearby café a couple of days before your interview and take a look
at your (hopefully) future colleagues – what are they wearing? Is there any
fashion trap you might step into with your choice so far?
4. Don’t Wear Too Much Makeup
When it comes to makeup and accessories, you should use as much as necessary but
as little as possible – everything distracting the interviewer from your
personality and skills might end in some attempts to flirt, but surely not in a
serious conversation or labor contract afterwards.
Of course – nobody should ever take a wedding ring off and if you have skin
problems because of pimples, you will surely feel better using some light
concealer. But there is no need for smokey eyes and pink lip gloss, so just
underline your natural beauty a bit without exaggerating the usage of your
vanity case.
So, good luck for the next interview – keep in mind to stay true to yourself and
you will not have to blame yourself afterwards if it goes wrong, because then
the company did a mistake!
