For your New job interview

When you go to a job interview, you want to convey that you are professional and ready to go to work. That doesn't mean you always have to wear a formal business suit, but it does mean that you should always look your best.

When choosing your outfit, follow these guidelines to make the best impression:

1. Wear clean, neatly pressed clothes.
2. Avoid anything tight-fitting or clingy.
3. Select a dress or skirt that is no more than two inches above your knee.
4. Select pants that are the appropriate length. Your pants should cover the ankle, but not drag under the heel of your shoes.
5. Select a tie that, when knotted, reaches the middle of your belt buckle.
6. Clean and polish your shoes. Before your interview, double-check that they are free of mud, debris, and scuffs.
7. Avoid too much jewelry and too many accessories. Remember that it is usually better to be over- dressed, rather than too casual, when you go to an interview.

Clothing is not the only aspect of appearance that is important; it is equally vital that you be clean and well groomed:

1. Take a shower or bath.
2. Avoid fragrances entirely.
3. Brush your hair and teeth.
4. Clean your fingernails. Avoid alcohol, onions and garlic, both that day and the day before.
