sunday series: dress up sunday

last Thursday i was called for a job interview i almost got the job it just that  the schedule is conflicting with my hubbys schedule haiiiizzzzz i wish i can magic my driving skills you know its not the first time that i lost an opportunity because i dont drive haiiizzzz but i still believe in a perfect timing , in Gods perfect time..

What to wear for a job interview well, a presentable clothes will do, clean & well press clothes . its been ages that i went for a job interview  so after i passed my Rn exam i been surfing online what to wear..and i learned that  pants is better than jeans/ denims, suits is the best but for me it depends on the weather, a simple cut dress will do, no low cut necklines, no sleeveless top, not so colorful clothes, go with neutral you wont go wrong with it. wear dress, skirt  of descent length, no minis.

How about  the shoes? closed shoes are the most appropriate piece to wear, no clogs , no super high heel shoes.

how about the bag? I’ve read that no big bags/ tote bags, a clutch or small satchel bags will do, always stocked a pen and notepad in your bag. i have this little vanity kit so i put my pen there , and for the small note pad i put them in my wallet.

Dont wear very strong perfume some people are allergic to perfumes and maybe the interviewer is one them. As for me i had a little spray of tropical scent perfume just for a fresher scent.

Dont wear too much make up, you’re not going to a night out / or a night party so just wear light , as for me i dont wear dark make up just a little  BB cream as my foundation, a little  berry rich blush from revlon and finished it up with a revlon pressed powder, lipstick is important because admit it or not job interview is so stressful and you don’t want to look so pale because your nervous so a little color will help but not too red either.

Not too much jewelry either, you’re not going there to show off your jewelry. I love statement pieces but for here i only used simple & small accessories.

and lastly always bring extra resume with you who knows you might need it , if you think that they already called you so they must have your resume don’t assume.

Just carry your self well , answer question clearly as possible if you know the job your applying for ,you can answer the question, and if what is written in your resume is true you can convey a conversation about your job experiences because for sure they will ask about your job history.
