Instructions
When  it  comes  to  job-hunting,  first    are  critical.  Remember,  you  are  marketing  a  product  -  yourself  -  to  a  potential  employer.  The  first  thing  the  employer  sees  when  greeting  you  is  your  ;  thus,  you  must  make  every  effort  to  have  the  proper  dress  for  the  type  of  job  you  are  seeking.  Will  dressing  properly  get  you  the  job?  Of  course  not,  but  it  will  give  you  a  competitive  edge  and  a    first  impression.
Should  you  be  judged  by  what  you  wear?  Perhaps  not,  but  the  reality  is,  of  course,  that  you  are  judged.  Throughout  the  entire  job-seeking  process  employers  use  short-cuts    heuristics  or  rules  of  thumb    to  save  time.  With  cover  letters,  its  the  opening  paragraph  and  a  quick  scan  of  your  qualifications.  With  resumes,  it  is  a  quick  scan  of  your  accomplishments.  With  the  job  interview,  its  how  youre  dressed  that  sets  the    of  the  interview.
How  should  you  dress?  Dressing  conservatively  is  always  the  safest  route,  but  you  should  also  try  and  do  a  little    of  your    employer  so  that  what  you  wear  to  the  interview  makes  you  look  as  though  you    in  with  the  organisation.  If  you  overdress  (which  is  rare  but  can  happen)  or  underdress  (the  more  likely  scenario),  the  potential  employer  may  feel  that  you  don't  care  enough  about  the  job.
