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?

  • Having interviewed a lot of young people for roles, the one that stood out to me was a 17 year old who came in a smart, fairly trendy, suit - but with converse All Star shoes on. In fairness, recruiting for a theme park, I thought it was great, and he looked appropriate for his age whilst smart. However, if I was recruiting for a more professional role, I would expect a smarter outfit. To me, that doesn't have to be a suit, i've seen a lot of smart trousers with very nice tweed jackets lately!

    A smart suit and cons?  I wonder where he got that idea from...
