Job Interview Questions: What to wear for job interview?

I have a job interview tomorrow at jcpenney as a sales associate. I'm a 16 yr old girl and I was wondering what to wear. I have this blue dress that is slightly above the knee and a little blue bolero. Would it be terrible to wear a dress slightly above the knee? Because otherwise I will have to wear jeans cause I don't have anything else. And if you have any tips involving the interview please help because it's my first one! I don't want to mess it up.

Job Interview Mistakes To Avoid



Recommended Answer:
Make sure you show up at least 15 minutes before your interview. Make good eye contact and only tell them what they ask for( don't talk too much). Be prepared to answer a question like "Why would you be good for this company?" or something like that. Be honest and don't ask how much you will be getting paid until after you get the job. When you sit down do not cross your legs or arms employers take that as if you are not being open with them body language is a big part of it. If you are prepared you will do fine and you will not be nervous if you are confident in your abilities. When they ask if you have any question for them a good one to ask is" what dose the training inlet" or "How would you describe the responsibilities of the position?"any other question you maybe wondering, again do not ask about pay until after.
The dress will be fine if it doesn't show your shoulders or too low on your chest remember you will be sitting down so test it out and make sure it doesn't go up to high when you sit down.

Job Interview Tips - Best Interview Questions


  • You have some very good advice here. I assume you have already filled out an application. If you haven't given any references, be prepared to give them. The dress is probably better. I can only add to the look them in the eye when you speak that you need to sit and stand straight, don't slouch. Be sure your shoes are cleaned or polished and your nails clean and filed. Not too heavy on any makeup and cover any tatoos and pull out anything that isn't appropriate. I disagree on asking questions about salary, hours or whatever. They are all part of the job description and I would want to know just exactly what the job entails and what is expected of you. And be sure to know about the store and what you will be selling. Don't forget to smile and be polite, friendly yet professional. good luck.. .

  • I think your dress will be fine. Be polite, use good voculabary, maintain eye contact, don't talk too much. They won't expect much from 16 year old but you should be able to *smile* and speak intelligently. Don't worry, relax. Have a few questions to ask them at the end but not about discounts, hours or salary.

  • where the dress. make sure to wear pantyhoes or at least stocking and most importantly, act like you've done this before and that you are familiar with their store.
