Maybe it doesn't really matter, but I'd like us to be presentable and wearing the appropriate attire for the interview.

Any advice on what to wear would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Wear comfortable clothing like business casual is fine. I plan on wearing khaki pants with a polo shirt and closed toe shoes. She is planning on a nice dress with flats. The main thing is not to draw attention away from the interview. Last thing you want is someone distracted with your appearance.

Good luck and Godspeed.

Absolutely positively dress nicely for the interview. This is as no brainer as it comes, as nothing bad can possibly come from wearing nice clothes. The worst that can come of it is that you put on nice clothes unnessarily. And the best is that a nice appearnace can put you over the top if the interviewer is teetering on some close call issues. I think this is important enough to you that you want every possible advantage, and the easiest one is to wear nice clothes.

What do you mean by a nice dress?

I think I'll wear some khaki pants and a white oxford or polo, and she can wear similar pants or skirt and a white blouse. She'll also wear flats since she's on the tall[er] side.

Thanks, Everyone!

I wore my "lucky" khaki pants, my blue sleeveless and black blazer and black doll shoes. lol. it makes me feel comfy and kept me warmth esp inside the NOX1.. it's a bit cold inside.. and at the same time i look at least presentable.. my fiance was wearing his suit and tie.. lol. he looks like my boss and i am the secretary (but he held all our stuffs)..rofl.gif

during our interview date, we noticed that most k1 applicants are simple and formal.. while the other applicants are way over dressed! and seafarers were wearing their uniform.. without being judgmental, some were wearing like they are going to a cosplay.. or some are wearing too MUCH high heels and all the make up or showing LOTS of skin.. but i guess that's how they want to look during the interview so it should be none of my business.. while the others were wearing their business/corporate attire..

but 4 me, just make sure to wear a simple but nice and comfortable.. at the same time wear ur confidence. :)
