A job interview can be one of the most important and memorable events in an individual’s life, supposing it all goes to plan. When you are given a job interview, you’re essentially given a chance to show an employer what you’re capable of and it’s important to make a good first impression.

Dressing appropriately for an interview is always a must, and while every individual has their own tastes and styles, you should make sure these do not exceed the unwritten rules of job interview attire.

Both males and females can look smart and presentable wearing a shirt, while a full tie and suit can be a smart look for males. Job interview clothing will of course depend on the job, and if you know the interview you’re attending is formal, and the workplace is formal, a smart, ironed suit can be key to your success.

For females, wearing trousers or a skirt (not too short), a shirt and a cardigan can give a professional appearance, showing you’re ready for the responsibility.
