Dressing for success at an interview means an applicant should

a. select clothing that could be worn at a cocktail party and a formal hair style.
b. wear well-fitting, businesslike clothes and a neat hairstyle.
c. wear only new, very conservative dark clothing and have a new haircut and/or style.
d. wear an outfit that reflects one's "off-duty" personality or hobbies and a casual hairstyle.


ANS: B
Conservative, business-appropriate clothing should be the first choice. Clothing should fit well so that it is comfortable to wear. Wearing conservative, tailored clothing will help the employer see an interviewee as one who will dress appropriately at work. One should try not to wear an outfit for the first time at the interview; having worn it before will give confidence that it fits well. The employer is interested in what appearance one will present at work and would not be able to extrapolate that from the applicant wearing an outfit that reflects "off-duty" personality or hobbies and a casual hairstyle.
