Interview
Personal Hygiene |
Personal presentation for a job interview is
about more than just clothes...
Nobody likes to talk about it, but personal hygiene often leaves
more of a lasting impression than your interview performance.
You only get one chance to make a first impression.
No matter how beautiful your job interview clothes, your
personal hygiene could let you down.
Top Tips to Remember:
· Iron your clothes - properly - don't risk missing
out shirts leeves, hoping you won't have to take your jacket
off (yes, we've all seen this one done!).
· Make sure your hair is clean and tidy - get it cut
well in advance of the job interview, so you're comfortable
with the style.
· Clean, tidy fingernails - this doesn't mean a full
manicure, it just means you'll feel more confident shaking
hands with the interviewer.
· Polished shoes - many a great suit is let down by
dirty shoes.
· Perfumes and deodorants - it's great to smell nice,
but make sure your favourite scent doesn't knock out the interviewer;
many people have reactions to strong perfumes and aftershaves!
If in doubt, ask a trusted friend.
· Fresh breaths - think before you eat those onions
or drink too much coffee! If in doubt, take breath mints with
you.
You
only get one chance to make a first impression and you will
feel more relaxed if you know you are looking your best.
