i have an interview soon with a training company soon and i am not sure whether or not to just wear a shirt and tie or a full suit? i feel as though a full suit may be too much? any opinions guys?

Hi Geo, from my experience with a number of major cadet sponsors, always try and portray the most professional initial image and impression you can, therefore the suit is a must. That along with a firm handshake actually looking at the interviewer goes a long way. This applies throughout your career, we have Masters Orals being done by the MCA here this week and all candidates have turned up in a suit or uniform (all have passed so far). Good luck with the interview. -

Full suit, always dress as smartly as you can for a formal interview'Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans'Comment

+1 for suit. Always better to risk being overdressed (within reason; no need to look like you're auditioning for a part on Downton Abbey) than underdressed. Shiny shoes help too. Anything that suggests you're taking it seriously and have put some effort into how you present yourself can help in a formal interview especially when applying for a leadership role in a disciplined service. Good luck on the day, hope it goes well.Comment

I have always worked on the idea of being dressed one step more smartly for an interview than you would for work, as you are going to be wearing a shirt and tie as a cadet then a suit is appropriate.Go out, do stuffComment

As this interview is one of the most important ones for your career, I'd go as formal....Originally posted by Clanky View Post
Or naked. That always works too....I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.....
