The University of Eldoret (UoE) is set to conduct its graduation ceremony on the 30th of November.
This will increase the number of graduates searching for employment opportunities from different employers.
However, a majority of the graduates will take more duration tarmacking before getting employed. To increase your chances of getting employed, your impression during interviews matters.
Here are some of the outfits that you should avoid while attending a job interview;
Earphones and headphones
Headphones are best for video interviews, for example on Skype. However, they might drive away your attention during face to face interviews. If you are serious about the job, you should take the headphones off during interviews.
Outdated clothes
No matter how broke you are after campus, appearance is key during interviews. It is unwise to put on the clothes you used to attend lectures with back in the second year. Try and upgrade your wardrobe and look presentable during the interview.
Overdone makeup and concentrated perfumes
Ladies, this is where you go wrong; it is a job interview and not a modelling contest. Apply your makeups reasonably by avoiding dark eyeshadows, bright lipsticks and heavy foundations.
Concentrated perfumes also apply to men since your interviewer might be allergic to strong perfume scents.
Casual clothes
It is always challenging on the kind of clothes to put on especially when the weather is hot and you do not want to sweat in your heavy suit. However, this does not give you all the freedom to put on your casual clothes hoping that your interviewer will understand.
Bright and flashy coloured clothes
According to balance careers, putting on inappropriate dresses that are bright, scanty and flashy coloured is worse than wearing short hemlines and plunging necklines.
