We already write an article about why should we dress up? By the we have to dress up by fallowing our surrounding Atmosphere and as well as the workplace of ours. Because through way of our dressing only people will recognize us to we belonging to the particular category it self.
And this is the second part of the College Fashion How To Dress Professionally series. So we need to fallow some sort of dress code t some sort of works. So here I want to go over what to wear to an interview for a job or internship and also a process that most college girls are going through now or will be soon actually.
Actually an old cliche applies to the interview process is to you need to dress for success and It sounds stupid, but it’s really very true what you wear to an interview is just as important as what’s on your resume mainly.
In the interview the first impressions are formed in just 7 seconds. and the 38% of a first impression is based on inflection and tone of voice only and 7% is based on what you actually say on that time and a whopping 55% of a first impression comes non verbal cues itself and In short, more than half of every first impression is based on how you look only.
The first reason is your appearance, your appearance makes or breaks you in the hiring manger’s mind first of all. And even If they like what they see and you just have a way better chance of getting the job on that time. And even if you say all the right things and if your appearance offends the person doing the hiring, may chances are you won’t be getting the job.
So how do you know what outfit will make a good impression and what ensemble will have the recruiter firing mind bullets at you for a half hour while she pretends to listen to what you are saying
so be prepared and be careful on your dressing mainly.
Actually the first step in figuring out what to wear to your interview is to do some research is
That find out what industry the firm is part of, talk to other people who have worked there if possible, and even also creep outside their office checking out what current employees are wearing if you want primer!
And If you are interviewing in the fashion industry so get to know the style of the company you will be working for actually.
