Job interview tomorrow, another what to wear thread.

Ok long story short.

I have an interview at this company for a warehouse supervisor and I was advised to wear a good shirt and tie, dressy suit jacket and trousers and leather shoes.

I was called today after 2 weeks and told I was unsuccessful for the supervisor job, however, there is another vacancy which, looking at my CV, he thought I might be interested in. Now this is an office admin job. Am I correct in thinking, white shirt and tie, suit jacket, trousers and shoes would again be suitable?

The job is working in the ops team, so Id have a manager in the department.

Sorry just really shaking and cant think clearly, you know its bad when you need to go back and proof read your post, lol.

    Yes. Suit is fine for nearly any role for the interview.

    People say you can never over dress but to under dress would be a no no. Good luck

    Yes, definatly shirt and tie.

    I've got an interview later for a driving/plant operator job and I'm going suited and booted, I do for any job I go for at the minute as its so competitive out there, you need to make the best first impression.

    Good luck

    I don't understand - this thread is entitled "another what to wear thread", so the OP is aware that there are a number of other threads covering this topic.

    Why not just read the other threads? - the advice is always the same.


    Ps - good luck OP, I hope it goes well.
