Why do you want to work at our company, and why should we hire you?
What to wear
To showcase your professionalism, opt for a sophisticated and sharp suit, or shirt and jacket
To communicate your creativity, select one bold or brightly hued statement piece, such as a tie or necklace
To convey reliability, choose more subdued colours
Blue can help to convey trust, stability, truth, confidence and security
Black is a business wardrobe staple and can convey authority, but it can also connote drama
White can offer connotations of cleanliness, precision and simplicity
Grey can suggest balance, calm, intelligence and compromise
-
Red is a strong colour, and is associated with energy, but also aggression
-
Purple, green, yellow and orange are bold and creative colours. While they may be appropriate for those within the creative industries, they don't necessarily elicit feelings of trust or commitment

The perfect fit. When it comes to dressing for your interview, it’s all about fit. Not only should you choose well-fitting clothing (because ill-fitting clothes can look sloppy and untidy), but you should also select an outfit that ‘fits’ with the industry and company culture of the organisation you’re interviewing with. If you don’t ‘fit’ in terms of how you dress, you’ll feel out of place and uncomfortable, and potentially give off the wrong vibe.
As a general rule of thumb, it pays to match the organisation’s dress code as closely as you can. If you can’t quite determine the dress code pre-interview, err on the side of caution and look to slightly overdress rather than underdress.
