Job Interview Questions: What kind of clothes should i wear for a job interview at a rock climbing gym?

i have an interview for a regular employee position at a rock climbing gym so what should i wear? i don't want to be too formal, or too lax, but its a climbing gym right? this is minimum wage job position any ideas?

What to Do Before, During and After a Job Interview



Recommended Answer:
Like all job interviews - somewhat dressy. I wouldn't recommend a suit/tie or power suit, but a pair of slacks/skirt and a button up shirt/blouse would be good. Probably comfortable, practical shoes (not heels, etc.).
Do not wear what you would climbing...save that for the job (if that's the dress code for employees).

Job Interview Essentials


  • Obviously those who said be dressy never been to a climbing gym before or have realized how laid back it is. First off if you walk into a climbing gym wearing a suit blouse they`re probably going think you know nothing about climbing. It`ll lead them to believe that you`re too strict or dont know what climbing is about. I`d show up in a pair of decent jeans and a t shirt or nice shirt. Dont get your hair all done and dont wear tons of makeup. I`d also bring a gym bag along with clothes that you can climb in, this way you can change after the interview and climb in the gym. It`ll show that you really enjoy climbing and climb any chance you get.

    After the interview ask the person interviewing you if there is a place you can change because you want to climb

  • I always make it a point to be somewhat dressy for any interview, regardless of the job type. You should just wear black or gray dress pants, a nice button down and dressy flats. It shows that youre not trying to over-do it, but that you are professional.

  • Wear what you'd like to work in if it could pass for new and smells fresh.
    In my case that would be black synthetic body stocking leaving feet, hands
    and neck upwards exposed. I prefer to climb wearing black boots, helmet
    and don't use chalk.

  • I would say jeans, a nice blouse, good shoes (not worn), and do your makeup well (I suggest doing it pretty nude). The jeans make it less formal, but you look like you care.

  • i would say NICE yoga style pants, a nice shirt/blouse, casual flats/nice shoes ( nice fancy workout gear)

  • climbing boots and a bowline.
