I always find the weekend Financial Time columnist David Tang funny and insightful. Two weekends ago, he wrote an excellent reply to the question below.
“How should one dress for a job interview? What hints are there for creating a good impression in order to get the job?”
Some key points:
1) Never be late for the appointment.
2) Dress appropriately (and professionally).
3) When you enter the room, approach with calmness and a slight smile.
4) Homework, homework and homework is essential beforehand. What you know about the interviewer (as much as possible) or company offering you the job is important.
I will share the second part of his reply in the next blog. Watch this space.
