Job Interview Tips: What should you wear to a job interview? You'll get your desired salary, just keep these things in mind..

Job Interview Tips: Have you ever considered that your clothes also act as your resume? Your first impression in a job interview isn't just based on your speech, but also on your attire. It's a silent language that tells the interviewer how professional, serious, and disciplined you are. The right clothes give you confidence, while the wrong ones can jeopardize your chances. Know which outfits in your wardrobe to say "yes" to and which to say "no" to to get the job.

These days, from startups to the corporate world, dress codes are changing everywhere. In some places, jeans and a t-shirt are acceptable, while in others, a three-piece suit is mandatory. But one rule that never changes is "professional ethics." Whatever interview you're going to, your attire should always be a step above your everyday attire—a little more formal than your everyday attire. If you're preparing for a job interview, you should be aware of the dress code. This will make it easier to crack the interview.

Job Interview Dress Code: Dress Code for Men
Men should always emphasize simplicity and professionalism for interviews.

Formal Shirt: Wear a light-colored, plain, or lightly striped shirt. White, light blue, or pastel colors are best.

Pants and Coat: Wear dark-colored formal trousers (navy blue, gray, or black). If you have a corporate or finance job, a matching blazer or suit is mandatory.

Tie: Choose a simple or minimally patterned tie that matches the color of your shirt and coat. The tie knot should be neat.

Shoes and Belt: Wear polished formal shoes (black or brown). The belt should always match the color of the shoes.

Dress Code for Women: These are the "Yes" Points

For women, attire should be neither too flashy nor too loose. A comfortable and classy look is best.

Salwar Suit/Sari: If you prefer Indian formal attire, wear a simple, light-colored cotton or linen salwar suit or sari.

Western Formal: Wear a simple, button-down shirt or formal top with a knee-length formal skirt or trousers. A dark-colored blazer exudes confidence.

Makeup and Accessories: Keep makeup subtle. Use perfume or cologne sparingly. Accessories (watch, earrings) should be simple and minimal.

Shoes: Wear closed-toed formal shoes or medium-heeled pumps.

Never Wear These Items to an Interview

This list is a "no-no" category that should be avoided at all costs:

Jeans and T-shirts: Avoid wearing jeans and graphic T-shirts unless it's a creative role.

Slippers or Sneakers: Flip-flops, casual sandals, or sports shoes are a no-no.

Bright colors: Avoid wearing neon, bright pink, or excessively shiny clothing.

Jewelry: Avoid wearing too much jewelry. It can be distracting.

Tight or short clothing: Avoid wearing too tight or short clothing.

Before going for the interview, make sure your clothes are clean, ironed, and comfortable.
