What HR Managers Learn About You By Looking at Your Clothes

  • If you want to get your dream job, it’s crucially important to make the best possible first impression on the recruiter, and everything, including your style, means a lot. There are five vital things you should know that hiring professionals use to form their opinions about you and decide if you will fit into the corporate culture and get the job or not.
    Sherry Maysonave, head of Empowerment Enterprises, an image consulting firm based in Austin, Texas, says that the first impression happens in less than 30 seconds and it’s based entirely on your attire.
    Using the color of your clothes, you can influence other people however you want. Pastel colors in clothes and makeup can help you win other people’s trust. The most important thing is not to overdo it. Blue is probably the best color choice for a job interview, unless you’re aiming for a creative job. The color red represents the life force and the inclination to be successful and efficient.
    Business suits are not always the best choice for a job interview because the impression you may give the employer is that you are “overqualified.” A tasteful statement dress that doesn’t reveal your neckline and ends around 1 inch above the very top of your knee will do just fine.
    Your attire should be as close to the company dress code as possible. People are more eager to accept other people who are like them, so the more you look like the other employees, the easier it is for an HR manager to imagine you working with them.

    SUMMARY
    -Blue is probably the best color choice for a job interview. If you choose clothes with contrasting colors, you could make a powerful and dominant impression. The worst color choice for a job interview, according to studies and opinions of specialists, is orange - it’s often associated with something unprofessional.
    -A business quit is the perfect choice if a manager is hiring for a senior-level position, a flower print dress won’t do in this case. But if you are looking for a job teaching children or a creative job, this type of attire is not just appropriate, but also preferable.
    -It’s better to impress your prospective employee with your professional achievements and attitude to work than with luxury brand logos.
    -Bad manicure, old clothes, and other little flaws, can make a very negative impression. Wear small and elegant pieces of jewelry like small earrings, bracelets, and watches. Your bag should have a clear shape.
    -Use social media to find out all about the company dress code and try to look like the other employees at the interview.

We are NOT selling this presentation. We only using it in our program to teach them about dress for success and what to wear when preparing for an interview. Your video will get more views and our unemployed and welfare to work clients will benefit from it. Thank you so much it will be greatly appreciated.

    People need to keep in mind especially HR managers, if you are looking at someone's resume and they haven't worked in a while I would not expect much like well manicured hands and brand clothes keep in mind these people haven't had a job in a while so money will play a huge factor in their appearance. However a great shower well iron clean fresh clothes shows humbleness for the interview definitely always gets me my perfect employee at all times. People who haven't had a job in a while or always grateful for you providing them a start over in life. Liberation looks so good on your employee I always get these people and they show up on time they do their job they're always doing overtime and they always want to succeed within company, So HR people keep that in mind.

      Well fitting black pants, spotless white shell and black blazer with black shoes. Simple but nice jewelry, a gold chain, a nice watch and no more than 2 rings, one on each hand. Have a fresh manicure that's a subtle color like a pinkish mauve. If your diamond wedding ring is huge maybe consider just wearing your wedding band, it'll be less distracting and if you're interviewed by a woman she may not like you because you have a nicer ring than she does. Women notice jewelry and judge.

      @@anitalaff It seems they were commenting that if it's a creative job, you can get away with bolder or more unique colors and styles. If you're going for a corporate position then a suit is the way to go. A suit would come off as stiff for a designer job and maybe also for a nurse. I think that's where they were going with that comment. Nurses, like shop assistants should exude warmth, empathy and generally come off as a "people person". That's hard to do in a stuffy suit.

    The color and style of the clothes make first impressions but colors and styles can be viewed differently in different countries and also it’s reasonable to choose them based on the type of job you’re applying for.
    However, I think it’s important to present yourself the way you are and not cover your personality in the color or style of the clothes.

These dress rules actually do NOT apply to "creative positions". You would not even get invited for an interview if your portfolio (that get's you that interview in the first place) is bad.

    I showed up early for my interview in a suit and tie. The HR woman was 15 minutes late, came in, called my name and never introduced herself. She just said, "Follow me." I thought she may have been a runner and was asked to come out and get me. As we entered an office, she said this is where the interview would take place. As I sat down in the chair she took the other side of the desk. I still had no idea what position she held or what her name was as she started asking questions. I had to ask her what her name and position was halfway through the interview. She was not even dressed professionally, but in jeans and a pullover shirt for being a large corporation. I was dressed well enough that you would have thought I was in a high-ranking position with the company. I immediately knew this is not the kind of place I'd want to work for when HR looks and acts so unprofessional. These are usually the people a job interviewee is the first to meet, they should be making a phenomenal impression for themselves and the company. Yet, she has a job.

  • @steveTGO
    @steveTGO 6 років тому +9

    I think your age and the position in which you're applying, makes a significant difference as to what attire is appropriate. If you're going for a leadership position, the most important image to display is that you have had success, in this case, showing name brand clothes and having the latest phone is a good thing. On the other hand, if you're very young and applying for an entry level position, name brand clothes and the latest phone could demonstrate ones lack of responsibility for priorities. There are other factors that contribute to how appropriate certain attire ends up actually appearing, how you carry yourself, how articulately you speak and most importantly, how well mannered you are. My point, your attire is to one extent justified by the way you walk, sit, speak and demonstrate respect for your potential employers!!!

    I work for one of the major discount-store chains, and their main requirements are closed-toed shoes, clean clothing without holes, and a collar shirt. I like the leeway with our pants type because I am much more physically and mentally comfortable in skirts. It may seem like an odd choice for stocking merchandise but the shelving is low enough that I rarely need a step stool. Mid-calf skirts (with bike shorts underneath for modesty/chafing) are still short enough to prevent tripping on fabric. Our collared shirt can be any style within reason; I pick polos because they’re durable and easy to match with a fun pair of patterned socks. I like this semi-uniform dress code; we all ‘fit in’ but can express individual tastes with patterns and hair accessories and shoe style (and now with the style response to the mandatory masks).

If I know I'm weak in a certain area and the interview points it out I simply state my ability to learn and desire to grow, ending with eye contact and a smile.
    It is good to have eye contact but please don't stare an interviewer down.

    Best thing I’ve had luck with in interviews is a well tailored, semi-form fitting black or navy blue dress paired with a black or navy blue blazer. I usually keep makeup natural and my hairstyles usually tied to a simple, elegant chignon or bun. Usually the only jewelry I wear is a simple watch and small silver hoops. It’s worked since college and it seems to universally be loved with HR wherever I happen to be interviewing.

    For females - Muster color full sleeves collared shirt always work for interviews. Note: If the fabric is Georgette wear it tucked out. In cotton or polyester, tuck in with deep navy blue/black trouser. Don't forget to wear a thin belt with 1"width in brown/black color. Carry beige/brown/black monocolor medium size handbag 👜. Accessorise yourself with small Diamond studs or pearl drop/round earrings, wear a watch with metal Dial n Belt. Wear a minimum of 2" heels or wedges in mono color. Use light makeup with Matt lipstick best suited to your complexion. Even red works if you can carry. Apply kajal/maskara which will enhance your eyes and leaves an impression of a confident and suitable employee for a particular job. Note: Avoid red/bold colored nail polish. Pastels/nude or no nail polish are best for interviews (provided you hands are will moisturised and nails are properly filed). Last but not least, Hair. Leave your hair open if you've got a nice haircut 💇(no more funky look though) or just simply put a pony tail (The motive is to look tidy😊 and not messy😟). Now, you're ready for interview. All the best girls.😀👍

Its much more difficult to advance under a woman because they hold grudges and are emotionally driven. If you're an attractive fast learner and innovative you wont advance. They'll remember that 1% poor rather than the 99% stellar. Maybe if one is a quiet mousy one that does C+ work at best then they'll advance because the female boss can still remain as the alpha female and in control. I will report to a male any day.

I REALLY wish it were not so, because as a busy male freelancer who needs to hire substitutes when I can't be two places at once, it can get complicated quickly if the best person to "cover" my part is a woman, and there are women in my part of the orchestra already. It makes my life unecessarily more difficult. I'll hear about everything EXCEPT about how she performed when I return. I've seen wonderful female players denied opportunities due to that mentality, OR, just as often, because a lot of my male colleagues find this dynamic exhausting and don't want to deal with it. (Then they are accused of wanting to keep an old boys' club.) Still, like most of my colleagues, I want the best person in my place, male or female, because the bottom line is the quality of the music and pleasing the conductor. I'M the one who gets in trouble if the substitute is sub par.

    She's very hard-working, & works in a privately owned Starbucks. She's been overlooked for many management opportunities within this privately owned Starbucks (they own more then one location).
    The only thing I see is that she tends to wear clothes with too much cleavage on & off the clock. Also, she shares a lot of her personal life with her coworkers.
    I've suggested she should be wear clothes that suggest "she's in it to win it" whether she's working that day or going in the location outside of work hours. I've also suggested not to share the intimate details of her life.
    I didn't think about her social media. I could suggest that. Honestly, I think a lot of it has to do with her cleavage & dying her hair a yellowish-blonde color & just her presentation.
