Suit and tie. Then as soon as you get into the interview room, unbutton your suit, take your tie off, take your shoes off, stick your feet up and say "right, lets do this"
Dress professionally: clean, pressed clothes, shoes polished, nails clean. no perfume, no distracting jewelry. research, research, research! know the names of senior leadership, history and purpose of business, a little about their industry. bring prepared questions with you - some examples: what are the top five priorities for the position? new position or replacement? if replacement, why did the other person leave? management style of manager? typical day for the position? growth path? stay away from questions in the first interview about vacation, sick policy, flex hours - leave that for the last interview. practice answers to typical questions: greatest strengths, weaknesses? why are you looking to change jobs? thank them for their time, ASK for the job, and follow up with a personal thank you letter that summarizes your qualifications, responds to any areas of concern highlighted in the interview, detail how you can add value, and ask for the job again. works for me every time!

think its a joke mateIs this a joke? So what if other people are seen around without ties. They already have jobs. For an interview it has to be smart, as if you were going to your grandmother's sister's wedding. Full suit, windsor knotted tie and shiny shoes.
Personally like wearing a tie. The suit jacket I dislike.
hmm your mate you say.My mate wore this shirt to a job interview once (not joking). Believe it or not, he didn't get hired.

Looks good and feels good. Anyone can wear some pants and a shirt and tie. Just like any scruffy **** can shave sometimes. I like wearing ties because they look smart as fuck^Yeah. But liking wearing a tie? What does it do for you?
