  • It doesn't matter what type of clothing store... all interviews are to be conducted with the applicant in dress attire. This means a skirt and blouse or dress with nylon stockings, and dress shoes. This is your first impression to make for the manager, and it is a way of saying, I respect you being the boss and thanks for taking the time to interview me. (^_^)
    btw... yes, I do know that Plato's Closet is a store that deals in purchasing and selling gently used clothing! The dress code will be revealed to you once you are hired, but for now it's professionalism all the way!

Job Interview Questions: Is it optional to put down in a job interview your "previous job"?

I dont want to put down my previous job because it really wasnt a job. Its a pretty long story, but I just want to know if I have to include it. The previous job was nothing bad its just i dont want anything to do with it. I want it as if it never existed.

Recommended Answer:
I would just leave it out and pretend you never worked there. They might ask why there was a gap in your employment though.

Job Interview Tips to Help You Wow Your Interviewers and Land the Job


  • That's what I do, you know how long a application would take if I put every job I had on it? Hell na.

  • I would not put it in.

  • There is no requirement to list your previous employer. However, be prepared to answer why there is a gap between the former job and now. Employers sometimes assume a gap of time between jobs is due to low motivation or, perhaps, an unwanted worker. Weigh your options. I know you want your previous job to be like it never happened, but ensure your omission does not open up difficulties getting another one.

    I was at The Body Shop the other day, and the woman to whom I spoke implied that jeans and a tshirt would not be okay for the interview (at my past places of employment--a library and a specialty soap store--they would be fine). So can anyone give me some good suggestions as to what I should wear to this interview?

    4 Tips For Having the Most Success With Your Job Interview


    • My first and only interview went really well, because i got the job and got really positive feedback about my personality too. being a Muslim shouldn't affect the interview. unless your workplace is racist! so just be confident in yourself. it also helps to have a sense of humor. don't be too serious about it all. laughing can help calm nerves. so chill out and remember they need you more than you need them! its about what you can bring to the company! good luck!

    • Never had an interview , finished at university then started my job. the fact that it's the family firm helped though LOL.

      Good Luck.[==== ====]

      2 Be smart especially shoes and FINGERNAILS
      3 Turn your mobile phone off.
      4. Make sure you have an handkerchief or tissue handy.

      Think before you speak and if you do not understand the question ask them for clarification.

      Be polite ans to the point in your answers.

      xox

    • Couldn't be worst! Of course I didn't get the job. I gave all the wrong answers. I thought I was being smart and diplomatic. But I learned a lot since. I'm very comfortable now. I treat it like a one-to-one meeting rather than an interrogation. I know exactly what they look for.

      Best of luck. Remember, they want you as much as you want them.

      Job Interview Questions: Possibly a dumb question about my job interview?

      so I have a job interview on Monday at a fast-food/restaurant place, am I suppose to just walk into that fast-food/restaurant and then ask around about where my job interview is? I know it sounds stupid, but I guess I just wanna confirm I am doing the right thing.

      A Guide to Preparing For Your Job Interview



      Recommended Answer:
      Arrive early. It will give you extra time to take a deep breath and relax. I agree with the advice to go to the place where you normally order and tell the "order taker" that you have an appointment for a job interview. Whoever you approach will be very understanding as they too went to that same counter at some point and did the very same thing. The employees are used to people coming in for interviews. Good luck. Be enthusiastic and respectful.

        Good luck!

      • "Hi, I'm here for a job interview"

        *Points you towards the back.* It's over there.

      • Yes. Just walk in and say you're here for your interview.

      Job Interview Questions: What do you wear for a job interview?

      I am 16 and about to go to an interview for a job for a yogurt shop. What am I suppose to wear to this job interview that won't make me look too old and classy yet at the same time not a lazy snobby teenager. Also do you have an advice on what to say during the interview?

      A Job Interview Without Cold Sweats



      Recommended Answer:
      I always wear red to my interviews and 90-percent of the time I ended up getting the jobs. There were many people way more qualified than me but I guess I was more ... rememberable in the interviewers' eyes due to the intense color of the outfits. It is also said that you should wear red to courts or to give speeches. So to sum it up, wear red!

      During the interview let the interviewer lead the way. Only talk politely when asked to. And whatever his/her opinions on certain things are just nod along with a nice smile.

      You're 16 so I guess the main concern that the interviewer probably has is reliability (I helped my mom interview teenage waitresses for her restaurant.) They probably will ask if you have reliable transportation or not. If you don't have your own car you'd probably have to go an extra mile to persuade them someone will give you rides to work and that you'll be on time every time.

      Always tell them that you really enjoy school (even if you don't) to show you're a positive person. Tell them you have a lot of friends who love yogurt (he/she will like you more because if they hire you they'll be able to attract a big crowd of your friends. More money for them.)

      Just be yourself and you'll do just fine. Good luck !

      A Job Interview Guide for Starters


      • I usually determine what I will wear to interviews based on what employees wear. Go by the store and take a look at what employees are wearing. If they are in t-shirt and jeans or cotton shirt uniforms, then wear dark jeans with no rips or holes with a clean shirt or sweater (not T-shirt) and closed toe shoes. If they are in dress pants and collared shirts, then you should dress up a little.

      Job Interview Questions: What should I expect at a job interview?

      I have a job interview tomorrow at my local movie theater. I've never had a job interview before so I'm kind of nervous. What should I wear? What type of questions would I expect to be asked? Please help!

      The Comic Tragedy of Job Interviews



      Recommended Answer:
      I think you should wear something a level above casual, nice pants and a shirt.

      The questions are the manager's way of trying to figure out how well you'd fit there, how serious are you about wanting to work there. He/she would probably be asking you about items from your past to get an idea - do you finish things that you start, can you be depended upon, do you have common sense, do you work well with others? People remember stories, so if you can now think of several examples that would demonstrate the above traits or other things you have identified as important you'll remember them tomorrow and be able to give examples to back up your claims - much more impressive to an interviewer. If you know someone that works there and you've talked to that person about what it's like to work there - I'd be sure to mention that, because that shows some thought and research went in to your applying there. If you really want to work there, find a way to communicate that and why you do during your interview. I think it means a lot when the candidate shows genuine enthusiasm for the company and/or the position during the interview.

      The most important piece of advice is to try to be yourself.

      Good luck!

      A Job Interview and the Ultimate Language Tool to Guarantee the Job Offer


      • Depending who the person is, can quite vary with answers. However what you should know is employers are not your friend and the first impression counts.

        - Answers fully to their questions
        - Dress nicely
        - Expect them to have a snotty attitude towards you, as they want to see what your reaction/tone of voice will be.
        - They WILL interview you in a public area! This increase the pressure as well as they want to see how well you can concentrate under pressure.

        They will ask:
        What is on your resume
        To explain your resume
        To explain job history
        Asking for references
        They possibly might ask [what is your definition of customer service]

        Keep your blood calm, your mind clear, and your stomach full for you better be ready!

        Break a leg ;]

      • Wear slacks and a nice shirt with a collar. If you go in with blue jeans and a t-shirt you have almost no chance of getting hired. Smile, shake hands firmly, but not real tight. Be prepared to answer questions like What hours can you work, what do you think would be the hardest thing about working here, how would you handle a mean customer, things like that.

        Good luck.

      • just be yourself and confident. it will make all the difference and answer whatever you are asked to the point. don't exaggerate

      • Good luck!! Wear something casual but nice.. Casual dress pants and a nice shirt.
