I have my interview 2moro (scared!!!) and was wondering what to wear ...... what kinda dress is it there? casual? office?
TracyTN
I don't think it matters really - just as long as its neat. I'm 99% sure my fiance will wear jeans.

Good luck - you'll do fine!!!!

Wear whatever you like! I wore jeans and a jumper, I think... and was going to wear some boots, then changed my mind and wore trainers. Definitely wear shoes that won't kill your feet if you have to stand queueing outside for hours!

Seriously, just wear whatever you're comfortable in... most people I saw in there were wearing casual/smart-casual stuff, definitely not going for the 'dressing for a job interview' approach!

Oh, and GOOD LUCK!!!!! Don't be scared, it'll be fine! smile.gif

I wore jeans, trainers and a sweatshirt. It was October, so a tad chilly. I really don't think they care what you wear, unless you turned up in tramp like attire of course! laughing.gif

Good luck!

Nah, surely those PVC nurse outfits would be just the thing, Tracy!! laughing.gif (Hmmm, I think Mags might've meant the other kind of tramp, but I could be wrong!!)

Don't worry about what your wearing and don't worry about the interview either, it'll be fine!

I don't even remember what I wore helpsmilie.gif

I think someone should try wearing a foam red clown nose one time and see if they notice.

Any takers?

We asked the same question. There were so many different types of dress there. I think as long as you look put together it doesn't matter what you wear. GOOD LUCK!

My fiance just wore trousers, a button down shirt, and black shoes. I'm sure jeans/casual is just fine, whatever you're most comfortable in is probably best. Trainers are probably a good idea, one I think my fiance wished he'd gone with after being on his feet for so long smile.gif

I'm sure your interview will go great! The anticipation is so much worse than the actual interview. Good luck tomorrow! Best wishes for that and everything that comes after smile.gifsmile.gif
*julez*
I won't comment on what to wear, as others have advised you properly! However, I will wish you the best of luck! I'm sure you will have no troubles!!

My husband and I wore formal business attire; I wore tailored grey slacks and a black knit top, earrings, conservative makeup, high heels. My husband wore a suit and tie.

By the by, my 11 year old nephew calls them 'hobos' (after seeing one in person in downtown Nashville). I about fell off my chair when he said that - what an old fashioned word! laughing.gif
