How to dress for an interview

According to surveys, a person who comes to an interview as a professional, in nice and fitting clothes can negotiate up to a 12% higher starting salary. With your appearance, you represent both yourself and the brand of the company you are applying for. That's why it's important to look professional, determined, and trustworthy.

The first impression from the door

It is quite common among people that it does not matter what we look like, but what we can do. They try to apologize for not being interested in fashion. The first impression is made during the first few seconds when the candidate enters the room. Which is, long before you have time to talk about your education and experience.

Adapt your clothes to the company's culture

Find out as much information as possible about the company, which helps you at the interview and at the same time you can find out what culture prevails in the company. Different clothing is suitable for public institutions, banks, or IT companies. There is also a difference between going to an interview for a managerial or non-managerial position.

A few tips in conclusion

Always try the clothes at home, look in the mirror and sit in it, so that you know that the length of the skirt or the buttons on the shirt will not betray you. Come to the interview at least 15 minutes in advance so you don’t stress and sweat.
