First Impression?

Accounting - Very business-like...professional.

Ag Business - Looks good. Professional. Fashionable.

Ag Lending - Professional. Blouse needs to be buttoned appropriately.

Ag Processing - Very professional look.

Education / K-12 - Clean and serious about appearing the part, however, it looks a bit large for this person.

Engineering - Civil/Construction - Very professional looking.

Engineering - Construction - This individual looks professional. Our company would like to talk to this individual.

Engineering - Manufacturing - Looks nice.

Engineering - Manufacturing - Classic, professional, driven.

Financial - Professional.

Healthcare - Professional...not sure if the outfit is properly fitting this person.

Hospitality - This person is aware of the potential management tasks yet is still learning about their job and position.

Information Technology - This is a great professional/business look!

Marketing - Fine. Not a risk taker. Dull but professional.

Medical Device / Biotechnology - Confident, professional, interested in a position.

Retail Merchandising - This is a nice suit because it is a dark color. The blouse looks too big and the pants are too long.

Appropriate to wear to an Interview?

Education / K-12 - A dark suit is clearly the easiest and best venue and can be used in many places if it fit well.

Engineering - Civil/Construction - Absolutely.

Hospitality - This would be appropriate for first-time supervisory positions in any hospitality facility and in management of economy or mid-scale hotels.

Information Technology - Absolutely!

Marketing - Sure. Make sure everything is pressed (it appears a bit rumpled and open the jacket). It is a professional, albeit standard, look.

Medical Device / Biotechnology - Very appropriate for interview and career event.

Retail Merchandising - With some changes it might be. A different style of blouse would be better. The open collar makes it look too casual. The sleeves of the blouse should not extend out of the jacket and they are too long. It is difficult to see but the pants appear too long as well.

Accounting, Ag Business, Ag Lending, Ag Processing, Engineering - Construction, Engineering - Manufacturing, Engineering - Manufacturing, Financial, Healthcare - Yes.

Appropriate to wear to a Career Fair?

Education / K-12 - Yes, the jacket and the pants appear to be fitting without constraining and thus would move easily if the event were inside a school (children present) or outside of school. I can not be sure if the pants are too long, if so that would be a problem. The shirt is clearly too long in the sleeves.

Hospitality - This would be acceptable for a business casual environment or event.

Information Technology - Absolutely!

Medical Device / Biotechnology - Very appropriate for interview and career event.

Retail Merchandising - Maybe, but I would change the blouse.

Accounting, Ag Business, Ag Lending, Ag Processing, Engineering - Civil/Construction, Engineering - Construction, Engineering - Manufacturing, Engineering - Manufacturing, Financial, Healthcare, Marketing - Yes.
