Impressing in an Interview, Fashion Tips for the Job Hunting

Impressing in an Interview, Fashion Tips for the Job Hunting

Interviews can be just as stressful for men as they can for women, and for good reason. Going into an interview worrying about how your outfit looks and if you are dressed appropriately doesn’t help the initial stress of wanting to impress with your answers, either. So going into this interview, you can do many things as a guy, fashion-wise, to help your odds and help you feel more confident to boot.

Tip number one: ask the secretary or manager who schedules your interview what the general idea of the dress code for the company is. Based on his/her answer you can choose your outfit. This will help you feel more confident and impress the future boss as well, by dressing the part.

Tip number two: dress like a man. Button up tee shirts and khakis are for little boys – for a serious office job, you will want to dress as a serious businessman. A shirt, tie and blazer or suit jacket and pants is a must.

Tip number three: dress as comfortably as possible while still staying professional. If you have one suit that is more comfortable than others, wear that one. Being comfortable will help you stay confident and positive for the interview and the job ahead.

Dressing the part for an interview as a man doesn’t have to be as complicated and confusing as you think. Being comfortable, confident, stylish and professional is the key to doing what you need to do to impress the boss and land that dream job.

Yet suits can be very uncomfortable during the warm summer months, but there are things that you can do so that you can still look great in a suit and also be comfortable in warm weather.

For one thing, you need to wear lighter colors in the summer. The most popular suits for the summer months are grey, beige, and tan. White and camel colored suits are not as popular and are not very suitable for business attire, but they are great for events such as an outdoor summer wedding. A light gray suit is easily matched with most shirts and ties, which makes it easy to wear for men who have limited accessories. If you want a beige suit, wear brown shoes and belt and gold colored accessories such as cufflinks.

You need to wear comfortable, lighter weight fabrics if you want to be at ease in your suit in the summer months. The number you see on a wool suit is not the fabric weight; rather, it is the quality of the wool. The higher this number is the finer the wool is and this means that the fabric will be lighter. Fabric weights are measure in ounces in square yard and you want your summer suit to be 7 to 9 ounces per square yard. You should wear more delicate patters on summer suits, such as Birdseye pattern, fine pin stripes, and delicate checks. Avoid wearing houndstooth, herringbone, Twill weaves, and Glen check.
