- Stick to Neutral Colors - Stick to neutral colors like black, navy, gray, and white for a professional look. Avoid bold prints and bright colors, which can be unpleasant for the interviwer.
- Keep it Simple - Keep your outfit simple and classic. Avoid anything too trendy or revealing.
- Pay Attention to Details - Pay attention to the details of your outfit. Make sure your clothes are clean, ironed, and in good condition. Do not wear two different socks like I did once.
- Dress for the Role - Dress for the role you're interviewing for. Whether it be a more creative field, or a more traditional or conservative field, dress accordingly.
