In fact I throw away most resumes as soon as the person leaves. You would be surprised at some of the things people do when they are applying for a job.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10447504861868070346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463166664601874507.post-26624804105955137222009-12-18T14:41:19.904-06:002009-12-18T14:41:19.904-06:00Regardless of what kind of place I'm dropping ...Regardless of what kind of place I'm dropping off an application, I always wear a nice pair of slacks, a nice sweater/blouse, and a pair of heels or nice flats. I do the same thing when I go in for interviews unless I am specifically told otherwise.JumpIthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08679491498657927023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463166664601874507.post-62527549810866693822009-12-18T11:49:46.011-06:002009-12-18T11:49:46.011-06:00Thanks for the comments, that's a big help. I ...Thanks for the comments, that's a big help. I am going to take your advice and wait until my black pants get back from being hemmed and make sure I look the part before going on to drop off my application.<br /><br />I like that rule of thumb .. and it will come in handy for all my interviews!BBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01608708153505596563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463166664601874507.post-4720202114127345082009-12-18T11:42:24.157-06:002009-12-18T11:42:24.157-06:00My husband and I did all the hiring for a company ...My husband and I did all the hiring for a company that employed skilled labor and I can tell you your attire does matter in the application process. It really showed us who cared and who didn't.<br /><br />I like the other posters rule of thumb. So yep, I say if it is upscale you should dress the part.<br /><br />Hope that helps.

If someone came in wearing sweat pants here, they would not get hired. Not by me. It is never bad to make a good impression by dressing nice and can only help. <br /><br />A good rule of thumb is that when applying for a job you should dress nicer than what the current employees are wearing.southnoreply@blogger.com
