What to Wear for an Interview

Debra WheatmanDear Deb:

Is it alright to wear the same suit to a second interview, one week after the first interview?

Thank you,

Marcus

Dear Marcus:

Yes, that is fine. If your suit is a solid neutral color (blue, grey, black, dark brown), it is unlikely that the businesswoman and businessman handshakeinterviewers will recall the color.   For the second interview, wear a different dress shirt and tie.   Those items are more memorable. The main thing it to have your entire outfit cleaned and pressed perfectly. Also, don’t forget to shine your shoes and carry a professional bag or briefcase.

Wishing you all the best!

Debra
