What you wear to an interview matters more than you might think. As a recruiter I can tell you how many times someone would come into an interview wearing a mini skirt and a bright pink top – an outfit that screams “I’m not professional”. Or possibly I’d have an interviewee wearing khakis and a sweater when I made it clear that the dress code was business professional. Either way, what you’re wearing, even down to what colors you choose says a lot about you. Your outfit just needs to convey that you are taking the interview seriously and that your personality will blend well with the company’s culture.
In “The Best and Worst Colors to Wear to a Job Interview” Vivian Giang briefly summarizes what your interview day outfit color choice will convey to your interviewer.
