Dressing Your Best to Impress

2. Dressing Right For The Interview
“You never get a second chance to make a first impression.”
Take the extra time to make your appearance perfect. For an interview you have to dress professional.
Make sure that the clothes you wear to an interview have been freshly cleaned and are free of wrinkles.
Check to see that none of the shirt buttons are missing and no other repairs are needed.
The first impression you make on the interviewer is going be an important factor in deciding whether or not you will get the job.
He/she will pay attention to how you look just as much as what you say or what experience you might bring to the job.
