[ MUSIC ] What do you wear to get the job? This is a question that people ask all the time. We'd all like to think that our resume, and our experience, will stand on their own, but the reality is we're constantly being appraised based on our appearance. So how you present yourself visually is Key when those first and lasting impressions are being made. My number one piece of advice is to do your homework research, find out what the company culture and environment is like and see how other people dress and then put your own spin on that. You wanna make sure I guess most importantly that you're comfortable and that you're confident. [ INAUDIBLE ] That being said, I think there are some specific rules that are applicable to pretty much any situation. If you're wearing a skirt or a dress, make sure it's in appropriate length. Make sure nothing is ill- fitting. I think fit is very, very important. If anything doesn't fit right, it's distracting. The same thing with. Just the quality of the garment. I'm not saying it has to be very expensive, but it has to be in good condition with no rips, tears, or stains. Your bag when you walk in the door will make statement. If you're reaching out to get a resume or a business card, People will take notice. And again, you don't have to spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars. Invest in the best bag that you can afford, and make sure it's good quality, good shape, and current. If you live in a city where you have to commute, a walking shoe, a commuter shoe, we all do it. Make sure you change before you walk to the elevator doors. Put on that heel, put on that shoe that you love that gives you confidence. If you're not a pant suit kind of person, don't wear the pant suit. You could get that same professional polish the fact By wearing a dress. If you're more comfortable in a dress, you can choose one that's tailored and high quality, and layer a really great jacket over it. And you'll feel more yourself, and you'll be so much more confident and comfortable. Your look or outfit for a job interview may not be the area where you'd typically spend a lot of time. But I really encourage you to do that. Because, how you look and how you present yourself, that could be the thing that helps you to stand apart from the whole other pool of applicants and helps you to be the one that gets that job.
