Job Interview Questions: Do you have to wear pantyhose to a job interview in healthcare?

What if you are wearing a very nice conservative black suit and black shoes. Is it necessary to wear hose? If so do they have to be off black?

Preparing For a Job Interview - How to Ace Your Job Interview and Jumpstart Your Career



Recommended Answer:
If a guy came in with a business suit and no socks, what would you think? Hose make you look more professional. Professional and well groomed make a better impression. If the interview is worth the suit, don't stop short. Skin tone would probably be a better choice. Black hose with a black suit is too much black.

Job Interview Strategies That Work - Create Your Perfect Interview Movie


  • Apparently, office attire is reverting back to the '80's when hose were worn more often. I would wear the hose to the interview, they may have a dress code for women which requires hose when wearing skirts or dresses.
    Wear a suntan or nude shade. Don't wear black or off-black. You're not going to a funeral.

  • How old are you ? Did your mother teach you nothing?
    A lady wears hosiery to a job interview if she wants the job! You can go into the ladies room directly after wards and strip them off if you want, but go properly dress for the interview. As the one gentleman said , how would you feel if a guy went to an interview in a suit and no socks with his shoes?
    (Rolling my eyes over common sense issue!)

  • I would advise you to wear pantyhose to the inerview.

  • I'm sure you're going to get hired cause you wore the pantyliners.

Preparing Your Interview Questions and Answers - A 6 Step Guide to Successful Job Interviewing



Recommended Answer:
Wear professional clothes such as a black pencil skirt with a blouse, or black pants with a button down shirt.

Bring a resume just in case, and use a folder, don't fold resumes it's not professional.

Top 10 Tips for Excelling in a Panel Job Interview


  • Yes, bring a good resume with you if you haven't yet submitted any to your potential employer. Don't worry about your lack of formal working experience - everyone goes through that stage. Your volunteer experiences are going to be a great advantage. Wear something that's appropriate for the culture of the company. A formal job may call for a formal clothing but a casual job may require something that's not too formal. It has to be decent and you have to look good for a great impression. You may arrive a few minutes in advance in order for you to get comfortable with the place. Relax, be confident, and try to go over some possible interview questions prior to your interview.

      Some Questions Astute Interviewers May Ask During the Job Interview Process

      show finish line that he has sense to dress right, but with their product.

      • Unless he would wear underwear to work at a lingerie shop, the nicer he dresses the more of an impression he will make. I would suggest a suit if he has one or business casual (with tie) if he doesn't. He is going for an interview, not for his first day on the job. Tell him to brush his teeth, comb his hair, smile and be confident. To help the confidence tell him to dress like he's going for an interview, not to run a 10K marathon.

        Job Interview Process 101 for First Time Job Seekers


        • Black minimizes size, so I would wear a red shirt or something more vibrant. Jeans or kacky pants with clean shoes.

          Be sure that you are groomed well (clean and a smile).

          Be prepared to tell why you want the job and why you want to work with children.
          You may be subject to DOJ (Dept. of Justice) exam which just checks to see if you have any record of child abuse (no biggie). Your employer will pay for this.

          You may be asked how do you react to pressure? Working with kids is important and no one wants a hothead working with children.

        Job Interview Questions: Should I mention this during a job interview or not?

        Tomorrow I have two job interviews, an hour or two apart. My friend said it might make the second interview (which is my first choice) more likely to hire me if I mention during the interview that I just had an interview before that. Kind of like how people don't want something until someone else has it. Do you think this is true? Should I mention that I just had an interview?

        Recommended Answer:
        No, not unless you have some special skill/talent and are a highly sought after employee. If you are, yes, then let them know you are in demand and they better make an offer.

        If you are not, don't bring it up. The interviewer might feel you are trying to intimidate them, and it comes off as a bad trait in a job interview.

        • No unless directly asked.

        A Job Interview Guide for Starters


        • It's always better to overdress than to underdress. You want to look professional. You don't need to wear a suit for a job at Goodwill, but you don't want to look like a slob, either.

          If I were you, I would wear a button-down long sleeved shirt and a tie (and obviously, don't wear jeans or tennis shoes if you do this).

          Make sure you look the interviewer in the eyes, stay positive and professional, and be courteous and confident. Interviewers usually make a decision about you within the first few seconds or minutes, so you need to look good and make a good first impression.

          Good luck!

        Job Interview Questions: What should I wear to my job interview?

        I have a job interview at a smoothie stand inside of an athletic store. I want to dress up for the interview so I'll make a good impression but I don't want to over-do it (the employees wear t-shirts, gym shorts, and running shoes). What can I wear that will look sophisticated and put together but still semi-casual?

        If Job Interviews Scare the Snot Out of You



        Recommended Answer:
        Never wear blue jeans while attending a job interview. Casual job interview attire is not advisable if you are serious in getting the job.
        The general rule is to opt for conservative shades and designs. Bright checked shirts, loud colored blouses, and odd designed dresses are not to be worn at all.
        You have to ensure that the set of dress you have decided to wear for your interview is sparklingly fresh and without any crease marks whatsoever. Also ensure that the shirt is buttoned up fully when attending the interview.

        Job Interview Tips - What To Do Before And During The Interview


        • A nice pair of dark or medium jeans with flats and maybe a tweed coat or a trench with a pretty blouse might work, but if you are looking for something a bit more casual, some shorts with a long sleeve t shirt and sandals would be cute.

        • no bootie shorts! Shorts about a bit over the knee with a nice polo, or a longsleeve striped or plaid shirt. nice and plain would do the trick. nice gladiator sandals or basic flats. good luck, hope you get it!

          Job Interview Questions: What are some ways to ace a job interview and what are some trick questions that employers ask you?

          Also what are the best ways to answer these trick questions? ( I have no job experience and I've never had a job interview)

          Secret Career Document - The Nine Magic Job Interview Hints (Get Hired Fast)!



          Recommended Answer:
          A lot of the questions may ask be phrased like you have had previous work experience. They may say, "Tell me about a work experience when..." But you can just use examples of when you were a student, experiences during projects, volunteer work. Just use your life experiences.

          One of the most common "trick questions" you will be asked will be to tell them about one of your weaknesses. The worst thing you can do is to say that you don't have one, or that you can't think of one. Everybody has a weakness, and we have enough that you should be able to list many (but don't list more than one.) Be honest, but don't tell them about a weakness that will stop them from hiring you. Don't tell them you have a hard time being punctual, don't tell them you can't work as a team, don't tell them you have problems with authority. Those things will NOT get you the job.

          What should you say? Tell them something that you can make adjustments for. This would be my answer. "I have a hard time remembering things. So I am sure to carry a small notepad with me. Not only to meetings, but everywhere. I do this so if somebody asks me about something, or gives me some additional instructions when I see them in the hallway, I can make note right then and not forget them before I get back to my desk."

          Another tricky question that is often asked is to explain about a confrontation you had at work and how you dealt with it. This isn't too bad. Just be sure to give them a situation when you handled things well.

          Another one might be to give them an example of when you made a mistake and what you learned from it. Again, don't BS them. Everybody has made mistakes; just don't give them an example of something really bad. My example would probably be something about communication. I used to have poor communication skills. When I was a new supervisor, I thought everybody understood what they I expected from them. So when I gave somebody instructions I never explained in detail and never asked if they had questions. I wasn't mean, if they did ask I would explain. But they sort of had to “hunt me down” to ask for clarification. I learned a lot those first couple of years. Now I make sure I explain in detail, watch their body language (you can see if somebody looks confused) and ask if they have questions.

          Another question might be “What would you do if you didn't agree with your instructions from your supervisor.” This is a really tricky question because you don't really know what the instructions. My answer would be something like, “I have always let me supervisor know if I don't agree with him/her. I am never disrespectful, but I do often like to offer alternative ways of doing things. But I also understand that my supervisor makes the final decision. If I have offered suggestions, and the supervisor still wants thing done that way, then I will follow those instructions. With the exception of doing anything illegal.” This answer may be a turn off for some employers who do NOT want other opinions, but I really don't care to work in those types of places. So for me, if it's a turn off to them, then I wouldn't be happy there anyway.

          I also suggest just searching for "interview questions" on the internet. You will find lots of questions and the more you go over and think about an answer, the better prepared and more comfortable you will be.

          Trying To Get A Job? Do Away With These Job Interview Booboos


          • Always ask at least one question. The normal questions that they will most likely ask you in every job interview are: What are your strengths/weaknesses, why do you want to work for this job, what do you have that other applicants do not and why you left your old job or why you are unemployed. The question that through me for a loop at an interview was when they asked me to tell them about myself. For some reason I couldn't quickly think of all the things I wanted a future boss of mine to know about me that would make them interested in me and want to hire me.
