MAKE A LASTING IMPRESSION WITH INTERVIEW ETIQUETTE Laura Murray mepatwork.com(Des Moines, Iowa - February 2, 2005) Behaving appropriately during every course of an interview is just one way to increase your success with finding a job. Here are some tips to consider before you’re seated across from your interviewer. §“Dress for Success.” Does this seem like an overused phrase? It might, but only because it’s true. An appropriately dressed candidate allows interviewer to focus more on character and quality of their interviewee because appearance is not a distraction. “Appropriate” can be interpreted differently depending on field and position you are interviewing for. Consider typical dress of an employee in that position and take it up a step or two. Generally in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical industries typical dress is not a suit and tie. Since dress is generally very casual in these particular industries, consider wearing a nice pair of slacks and a polo or denim shirt. §Leave early enough for your interview so you allow time for traffic. Make sure you know how to get to location. It would be a good idea to go to office building before day of your interview so you don’t get lost and lose your composure or confidence. Aim for your Estimated Time of Arrival to be 10 minutes earlier than scheduled interview. Don’t be late, but don’t be too early. You don’t want to keep them waiting and you don’t want to rush them. It is likely that your interviewer won’t be ready for you until scheduled time anyway.
