The first impression can be made only once. Then correct mistakes made possible only through hard work. When you come to get a job, the impression of you plays a key role in making a decision. What is the result of the first impression? Of course, this is your professional skills, intelligence, grasp, manners and ... appearance. A small percentage of employers say that they do not pay attention to the appearance of a potential employee when determining him for a position. But even they either are cunning, or we are talking about work that can be performed remotely - that is, about freelancing.
So, what should I look for when I get a job
- When choosing clothes for the interview, consider the features of the work you are applying for. It is unlikely that the employer will appreciate a plain, gray, trouser suit with a white shirt from a photographer or an advertiser. At the same time, elements in the style of casual for sure no one will please in the law firm. Relevance - the main thing in choosing clothes.
- Temptation is a key moment. Crumpled or, God forbid, soiled clothes and dirty shoes are unacceptable anywhere, especially at such a responsible event. Girls should remember that the hands and hair should look well-groomed. The manicure should be neat and fresh, do not forget that if the varnish suddenly bursts, then it's better to do without covering at all than to present the nails in this form. Hair, of course, should be clean, and styling - a modest, but elegant. If you own a long head of hair, then at a reception with a potential employer you better do without loose hair.
- Even if you are a representative of the creative profession, do not get carried away by catchy details. At the interview you have to show that you are really interested in getting a job, and work for you is not an empty entertainment.
- Strictly forbidden to put on a meeting with the employer of candid things. Deep neckline, things that bare the navel, low-set jeans, mini-skirts should not be seen at the interview. Naturally, any demonstration of underwear is also under taboo.
- Avoid an abundance of accessories. Neither expensive jewelry, nor cheap jewelry will give you solidity, if there are a lot of them. Typically, the interview is appropriate ring (not a ring), a thin chain (perhaps with a small pendant), small earrings, thin bracelets and watches. In order not to overdo it, limit to two, maximum 3 things from this list. Elegantly look a brooch on the lapel of the jacket - just do not load additional details with the décolleté zone.
- Shoes should be neat, stylish and comfortable. Choose a good closed shoes of leather or suede on an average heel 5-7 cm. The hairpin and the platform for such an event are not appropriate, the wedge is only in a very low-key version. The bag is laconic, of medium size and of strict shape.
- Before the interview, use odorless deodorant. For interviews light, unobtrusive aromas are preferred - woody and eastern notes are best left for a romantic date. A subtle, slightly subtle fragrance that
and is required for an interview, will give a deodorant from the perfume series. - Do not forget about make-up - an "undressed" person is inappropriate in the workplace. In this case, cosmetics should not be much, and colors are better to choose soft, pastel.
So, you came to get a job of your dream. A little while ahead of time will take time to fix your hair and make-up, clean shoes if necessary and make sure of the proper condition of your clothes. At the business meeting, stay confident, smile and answer the questions clearly. Regardless of the outcome of the conversation, do not forget to thank your interviewer for the time spent.
