What to Wear ?
There is a saying "there are two days when you absolutely have to look your very best : your wedding day and your first interview". Keep in mind that you are going to initially be judged solely by your appearance. Since you are assumed to be looking your best, if your best isn't up to par with the organization's standards, you'll have a hard time convincing the hiring people you are right for the job.
Men
· Clothes :
o Avoid Jeans. Wear dark colored pants with the collared shirts that are plain or come with light stripes.
o Avoid wearing the shirts that are too thin or have designs on them. Avoid bright colored shirts like red and purple.
o Wear an undershirt beneath your collared shirt so that, when you sweat, it does not seep through to your shirt.
o Necktie is not necessary, but if you wear, then it should be silk with a conservative pattern
o Dark shoes (black lace-ups are best)
o Dark socks (black is best)
o Don't wear athletic shoes
· Hairstyle :
o Well-groomed hairstyle is OK. Don’t go for spikes.
o Don’t go for the Haircut before the day of the Interview. It may ruin your entire look. If feel your hair is long, then make it cut before one week of the interview atleast.
No Smoking :
o If you smoke, avoid smoking before going to the Interview room. If you badly need it, use mouth freshner after completing your work
Women
· Clothes :
o It is advisable to wear salwar or a sari. Keep in mind that you are not attending software interview. The interviewers will be some government employees with 50+ age. So obviously it would be a negative if you are too modern.
o If you are wearing a salwrar we suggest you to wear a light colored one. Do not wear jazzy ones with dark colors.
o Wear neatly ironed clothes. Also, If you prfere to carry a hand bag ,
o If you want to go Western-then wear slacks/pants or skirts that fall below the knee. Avoid shirts that have too much of a pattern as it can be distracting. It's best to wear dark pants or a dark skirt and a nice, ironed, light-colored collared shirt.
o Try avoiding bright colors like hot pink and orange.
· Accessories :
o Don't wear too much jewellery
o Do not wear hanging ear rings and bangles.
o Hand bag is ok. But avoid Big, Glittering handbags. make sure it goes well with your dress. And don’t play with it during the interview.
o If you wear nail polish (not necessary), use clear or a conservative color.
· Hair style :
o Well-groomed simple hairstyle is ok.
o Wash and dry your hair the night before the interview. By getting that out of the way, you'll save time the day of the Interview.
o If your hair is long, consider pulling it back in a ponytail. This way, you won't be tempted to absentmindedly fiddle with it.
o Avoid glittering hair accessories.
Both Men & Women
· Remember, dressing sense carries great marks, it reflects your personality.
- Wear neatly ironed clothes.
- No wacky hairstyles. Keep hair neat.
- Clean, trimmed fingernails
- Empty pockets - no key chains or tinkling coins.
- No heavy colognes or perfumes. The best practice is to forgo strong scents that day.
- No need to wear Suits / Neck tie. Its fine if you have them. But no need...
