WHAT TO WEAR: Interviews

February 24th, 2016 at 2:00am

Interviews can be one of the most nerve-racking experiences for most college students. First impressions are everything, and although you may be nervous, showing your potential employer that you are a good fit for the position by wearing a put together outfit is key!

When figuring out what to wear on the big day, the best place to start is to pick a suit that fits well and you are comfortable in. Since most people usually decide to go for an all-black suit, this Fashionisto decided to switch it up and chose to wear navy. This tailored, monochromatic suit from Express gives this stylish Fashionisto a classic, sophisticated look.

This Fashionisto chose to make a statement with the burgundy tie that he is wearing because it complements the suit in a very subtle way with a few navy stripes going through it. Resorting to a simple colored tie, like this Tommy Hilfiger one, rather than a patterned tie creates a really nice combination of colors and does not cause distraction to the outfit. In the end, ties are meant to make a statement, not to overwhelm the outfit and become a distraction during your interview.

To finish off the look, this Fashionisto chose to pair the outfit with light brown leather shoes and accessorize with a gold men’s watch from GUESS.

One Simple Change: Hopefully these tips will help you prepare an awesome outfit that will assist you in landing your dream job or internship that you are going after! If you do not have a job interview coming up, and are just looking for something to wear for a class presentation, you can simply change this look by losing the suit coat and switching out the leather dress shoes for Sperry Top-Siders boat shoes.
