Once you've got your resume embellished and ready to shine it's time to turn your attention to your wardrobe. The first impression you make on a potential employer is the most important one. The first judgment an interviewer makes is going to be based on how you look and what you are wearing. That's why it's always important to dress appropriately for a job interview. First impressions are important so make this one count and you're halfway there to getting that new job.

1. Wear Trousers not Jeans

For all those first timers out there, you may have the perfect shirt and jacket to wear over those new jeans that make you look great but save that for your friend's party.

2. All tied up

The nerves are getting to you but you are not sure which Tie matches your Suit. Do not make these mistakes –

a) Wear that super skinny tie you recently bought. Why? Because the interviewer is most likely more experienced and older than you and a regular tie is most likely to give him the impression that you are taking your career seriously.

b) Make sure your tie is not denim and crumpled having been removed from the bottom of your drawer. A sharp silk or knit tie always lends gravity to your persona.

c) Do not go for an overly bright color and one of your funny Homer Simpson print ties, you may get the humor but the chances are that your interviewer may not. Opt instead for subtle prints and muted solids that elevate your Suit.

3. Leave no room for creases

Let the Interviewer cross-question you all want but but confident and do not let the creases show. Make sure your suit is ironed and a clean shirt is pressed beforehand so you need not be scurrying around before the interview.

4. Toeing the Issue

Make sure your shoes are polished. Shoes speak louder than words.

5. Stick to the Classics

A classic black, dark blue or gray Suit will help project your seriousness. Make sure you strike a balance between cycling & eccentric with the help of suit accessories. Avoid a double-breasted suit; a single-breasted one is not only more current but always safe. Either a two-or three-button cut is fine, although a two-button style is a shade more classic. Fabric must be seasonally appropriate and properly pressed. Crisp and neat are key when deciding what to wear.

6. Groom well

Do not forget to shave that goatee. Keep it clean and make sure your hair is short and not all over your face.
