[ Layout and positioning for Interview Dress Suggestions ]

| You never
get a second chance to make a good first impression.
Your grooming and dress are important to putting your best foot forward.
Always remember that the clothing you wear should enhance your personal
style, and identify you as someone the employer would want as a
representative of their company or organization. Appropriate professional
dress can vary depending on your career field. Talk to people employed in
your field of interest and ask their advice. |

"Image is a tool one uses to accomplish an objective." The way
you dress indicates how you want an employer to think of you. The

Observe what other people wear in the field of
employment you wish to enter and dress accordingly but
professionally. |

Keep cologne or aftershave to a minimum, best if applied at least two hours before the interview. Because an interviewing room can be small, scents could be overpowering. |
