Prepare for the Job Search ~ Interviewing ~ Final Checklist

FINAL CHECKLIST

Your appearance is only as good as your grooming.  You want your experience and qualifications to shine.  Your appearance should enhance your presentation, while your business etiquette should highlight your professionalism, not overwhelm it:

  • Make sure your hair is clean, neatly trimmed, and well groomed.
  • Use make-up conservatively.
  • Women: no runs in stockings
  • Men: dark socks that cover the calves of your legs.
  • Shoes polished.
  • Women should avoid excessive jewelry; men should refrain from wearing earrings.
  • No missing buttons, crooked ties or lint.
  • Remember, during lunch, dinner, or social functions with a potential employer, you are still in the interviewing process so be at your very best behavior.
