Good morning. It’s Sunday July 29, 2018 and this is your first early morning Jobs briefing!

In today’s Jobs news: E! Online is looking for a writer, focusing on People’s Choice Awards content….Ion is beefing up its sales teams….MSNBC has the call out for cable news producers.

Wardrobe is one of the most stressful parts of preparing for an interview – the key is to keep it simple. I’m not saying dress like a 1980’s applicant for an accounting position in accounts payable. I’m saying stick to the basics.

Stay way from flashing prints or eye distracting items. Most common distractions are going to be your shirt, tie, blouse or accessories. The distraction can in many situations cause someone to miss your points and insights being addressed pertaining the job you are interviewing for.

Wear clothes that fit. Make sure you are comfortable. New clothes are great, just make sure they fit you well, not too tight and not to loose. Your personality and your degree of comfort in a room with people you haven’t met is very important. Wearing a tight jacket or heels you aren’t used to walking in will throw you off your game. Standing confident in your own skin while interviewing is a powerful asset. Demonstrate it.

One of the most important items to omit from your wardrobe is cologne or perfume. Sometimes the smell of a cologne or perfume can rub someone the wrong way. They could have allergies. Or the fragrance may wake up a suppressed hunger for an interviewer that didn’t have breakfast! In these situations, interviewers may want to just get the interview over with in hopes of getting some fresh air or a bite of someone’s leftover donut in the breakroom.

In a nutshell, when it comes to your wardrobe for that interview, think about how you are going to be remembered. You don’t want to be remembered as the guy with that strong cologne or the gal with those loud earrings. Once you get the job, pour it all on!

Quote

If you don’t enjoy your career,
today is the day to begin a long-term plan
for creating a career that interests and excites you.
And, in the short term, even if you hate your job,
look for small joys at work each day,
perhaps in your interactions with customers and co-workers.
– Jonathan Lockwood Huie
