DRESS FOR SUCCESS at a career fair, interview, or on the job

Comments from businesses in the College of Human Development and Education

What is your First Impression?

• Appropriate and comfortable


• Casual and stylish


• This is fine - nothing special - leaves me thinking 'just okay'


• Not so much business, more like retail

Is this appropriate for a Career Fair?

• This certainly would work and given the variety of environments and temperatures it could be exactly on - needs something to distinguish it...


• Ok, I would add a jacket

Is this appropriate for an Interview?

• Not in public education; I believe you should wear formal business attire


• I would suggest sleeves depending upon the season


• Not appropriate for an interview


• Ok, if no suit is available


• Again, it is fine, but does not speak to individual style; If this is comfortable I would certainly go for it - the personality will shine out
