What to Wear to an Interview

1. Suit:
  • A two-piece matched suit is always the best and safest choice.
  • Navy and dark gray are safe and most conservative.
2. Ties:
  • Avoid fashion extremes like character ties or ties that have too many colors.
  • Keep it simple and conservative.
3. Shirts:
  • Long-sleeved shirts, even in summer; preferably white or blue shirts.
  • Blue, white, or blue and white striped dress shirts are the best basic shirts to build your business wardrobe because they will go with almost any tie.
  • Do not wear a short sleeve button down shirt with a tie.
  • Dark color dress shirts are to be worn casually and never with your suit.
4. Socks:
  • Dark socks, preferably over the calf.
  • Socks should match the color of the pants.
5. Shoes:
  • Leather black or brown shoes.
6. Belt:
  • A black or brown, simple dress belt, to match your shoes.
