Dress advice for interviews

Paul Andrew Cunningham

My daughter is about to graduate from university and is starting to attend interviews. As her dad, in his 60s, I am the least qualified person in the universe to offer advice. What advice on dress would you offer her?

  • What kind of job?
    If a suit isn't appropriate or she doesn't want to spend money on one if she's unlikely to wear she gets a job then I would suggest some smart trousers or skirt (at least knee length) & a blouse/ shirt. A smart coat can replace a jacket. If she's applying to be a solicitor/ accountant then there would be an expectation for a suit probably & I have found that people applying for graduate schemes tend to wear a suit. Other than that, suit not required.
