Hair, Makeup, Accessories
As there are many different kinds of hair and thus many different kinds of professional hairstyles, there is a wide variety for what is acceptable for a professional setting. Regardless of style, youll want to make sure that your hair is clean and kept. As for makeup and accessories, both are acceptable and even encour- aged for interviews, but youll want to make sure to keep both as simple as possible. Going for a more natural look is best for makeup and wear- ing jewelry that isnt too bulky, noisy, distracting or inhibitive of normal body movements is best. You want to make sure that your focus is on the interview and not the discomfort of your clothes or accessories.
Clean it Up!
Before you throw on your big interview outfit, make sure that every- thing is clean and looks as pristine as possible. Make sure to iron your clothes (if needed), hang them up to prevent further wrinkling, free them of tags or loose strings and, above all, eliminate any negative odors. Remember, your outfit should make you confident and compliment the experience and skillset that you know will benefit this workplace. Now go get them!
