Dressing style in interview
Dressing style in interview in order to give a professional look:
* Dressing style is one of the most powerful equipment for the battle of interview. It provides the half of expression to the interviewer. If you are pressing good and informal manner, you can face the interview in the best possible manner and confidently.
* Interviews have certain expectations about dress codes. Falling to meet those asked for patience is dangerous. The rule of the thumb for dress and appearance is to on the side of caution. On the whole, interviewers tend to be cautious and conservative than hiring someone.
* The last thing an employer wants to do is to hire the wrong person. Reliability, loyalty, consistency, trustworthiness and dependability are qualities that all employers seek in employees, no matter what type of job it is.
* Your task at the interview is to signal to the interviewer that you have all those qualities, addressing appropriately represents a good start. All the qualities include, always make a point of creating clean clothes and shoes, jeans or anything else with holes in them may make a positive impression on the dance floor, but are unlikely to inspire and interviewer, avoid excessive jewelry and makeup, a designer stubble may make you look mainly and represent the latest word of the fashion gurus out of our, it is likely to make the interviewer thing that you did not think the job was important enough for you to bother shaving.
* Avoid extreme hairstyles, avoid displaying too much skin. There is a sensible school of thoughts that advocates dressing according to the nature of job you are applying for. So, if you are applying for an accountant position, you we’re a business suit, whereas if you are applying for laborers position on a building site, a business suit is inappropriate. All this is true, however, the dress and appearance remained important.

Tips and Tricks for Successful Interview
Planning to appear for an interview over next few days? This article might help you to succeed. Please go through this to get valuable tips for interview.
Here are some pointers that will help you shine:
Small talk
Don’t be shy about making pleasant small talk on the way to his or her office. Comment on the beautiful office space, the neighborhood, the company or the weather. Confident people strike up a friendly conversation and try to relax the interviewer (they are always nervous, too).
Use your notes
Bring your notes and don’t be afraid to use them. It makes you look well-prepared. If something of interest is mentioned about the job, pause and write it down.
Your CAR stories
Rehearse your CAR stories so you can assert yourself and interject them. What is a CAR story? CAR stands for Challenge, Approach, and Results.
This easy-to-remember mini-story format can be applied to your responsibilities to give examples about how you work and the results you achieved. So, rather than just waiting for the interviewer to ask a question, you are prepared to drop in a powerful mini-story at any point in the conversation.So, for each major area of responsibility that you are “selling,” come up with one or two CAR stories. Write down the Challenge you faced with that responsibility, the Approach you took to accomplish it, and finally, the Results you achieved. The more you rehearse out loud, the more confident and assertive you will sound.
Prepare your questions
Come prepared with questions about the job, such as expected results after the first year, expectations of internal and external customers, and what happened to the person who had the job before.
After you have asked job-related questions, move into questions about the culture, the manager’s leadership style, the strategy, and other big picture questions. Candidates demonstrate their assertiveness by the questions they ask, as well as the questions they answer.
Take credit!
Studies show (and I’ve observed) that women tend to soft peddle their accomplishments. Instead of using phrases such as, “I negotiated a 30 percent reduction in the vendor contract,” they soften it: “We were fortunate to get a 30 percent reduction…”
If you did it, take credit for it. On the other hand, when a team was involved, be careful not to sound like a glory grabber.
In other words, if you lead a team effort, it could sound something like this: “I intentionally chose three influential internal customers to sit on the Steering Committee, and I also invited some powerful external customers who were skeptics. I knew if the pilot project was successful, we would need champions to get buy in across the company. Focusing this team was a challenge but in the end, the pilot was a success and they played a key role in selling it to the rest of the organization.”
You can still talk about the team’s efforts but be sure to play up your role in leading it.
Look the part!
If you’ve let your hairstyle, eyeglasses, shoes, makeup get out of date, go to an image expert. Sometimes you can find them at fine clothing stores and they will work with you as a part of their overall service.
Sometimes I meet an executive woman who does a fine job where she’s been working for the last ten years. People know her and overlook any faux pas in the style department. But if you have a frumpy look, it can make you look less assertive. Think bold colors and a tailored jacket with clean lines.
Hold the floor!
In Deborah Tannen’s book, Talking from 9 to 5, (1994, William Morrow and Company, New York) she observed and recorded hundreds of Board meetings. She points out that women tend to speak softer and don’t hold the floor as long as men do. After the meetings, when she interviewed the participants, they often attributed a woman’s ideas or comments to someone else, largely because the woman didn’t make a strong enough impression when she was speaking.
During your interview, round out your thoughts with examples and tell CAR stories to highlight your accomplishments and your style. This is not the time to be overly modest or too concise in your style.
