DRESS FOR SUCCESS at a career fair, interview, or on the job

Comments from businesses in the

College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences

 

man in white dress shirt, jeans, white tennis shoes

What is your First Impression?

  • Sloppy

  • Blue jeans should never be worn. This candidate's shoes are dirty and distracting - choose a dark shoe; He may also want to shave prior to attending a career fair or job interview

Is this appropriate for a Career Fair?

  • Did not dress to impress, shirt should be tucked in if this is the only available clothing for the occasion

  • Unprofessional - would not look at this candidate as seriously pursuing a career
  • Not appropriate

Is this appropriate for an Interview?

  • Definitely not; The shirt could work if paired with a nice dark suit, tie, and dress shoes
  • Absolutely not appropriate

  • Jeans are not appropriate
