Here’s What To Wear To Ace That Job Interview

by Aaron Kok  /   September 10, 2018

Job interviews are perhaps one of the most stressful moments you can face in your career. Whether you’re just starting out in the workforce or you’re about to meet senior management to discuss your candidacy for that vacant senior position, feeling the nerves is unescapable and understandable.

So as you fire up that curriculum vitae and update your LinkedIn, don’t fret too much about what you’re going to wear. Instead, let us give you easy style solutions that you can rely on to help you make a great impression with your interviewers and land you that job.

Here's What To Wear To Ace That Job Interview
1. Colour-block your separates

It’ll be hard to fail if you stick to safe options like a long sleeve blouse and work pants, so make a bit more of an impression by colour-blocking your pieces. Choose complimentary tones that don’t steal the attention away from you, and stick to fabrics that won’t wrinkle easily.

2. Layer your textures

A blazer is a sure-fire look to get your interviewer’s attention, but if you really want to make a lasting impression, try to pick a jacket and a dress from the same colour family in different patterns.

After all, impressions are what’ll help you stand out from the crowd, right?

3. Dress up your basics

The working suit is synonymous with professional attire, so look for interesting details and fabrics to add that unique touch to your ensemble. And if you really want to show your creative side, throw on a statement belt for some sartorial drama.

4. Make your neutrals interesting

Even a denim jacket can be worn to a job interview, so long as you keep colours muted and opt to wear a dressier jacket. Instead of going to your boring black pieces, try using white, as it makes you appear more open and approachable.

5. Bank on banker stripes

Banker stripes give off an air of seriousness and power, especially when the piece is tailored to fit you perfectly. Dress it up with a cool jacket and some pointy pumps.

6. Wear your "smart" dress

Headed out to an interview during your lunch hour? No sweat. Rather than fuss over a suit, slip into a coat dress that exudes effortless charm and elegance.

7. Dial down the bling

Speaking of accessories, it’s always wise to accessorise for an interview. Just make sure you do so sparingly. You want to be making the statements that will get you the job, rather than your jewellery stealing the limelight.

In most cases, a bracelet watch and a simple necklace will suffice.
