Different companies and
industries have different norms as it
relates to business dress. The majority of
organizations in all industries, however,
have very similar expectations when it comes
to interview attire. The standard protocol
is professional dress - which means a
conservative, well-tailored suit for both
men and women. Although a business suit may
not serve as the everyday work attire for an
organization, recruiters expect candidates
to present business professional attire
during a job interview. Though it may seem
petty, appearance is critical to first
impressions. Not presenting a polished look
has the potential to cost job seekers the
offer and/or current employees the
promotion.
If you get a little confused
when you hear or read the terms professional
dress, business casual or casual attire, you
are not alone. However, one thing you must
recognize is that there is a difference, and
your ability to dress the part will have a
huge effect on your future career
opportunities. Remember, employers in the
United States have a legal right to ask you
to adhere to dress codes.
