I work for state government and am thinking of changing agencies, because I'm dissatisfied with my current job. I would have to go to interviews during the day, I'm sure, but I get off at 4:30 and come in at 8:30 making it pretty easy to slip one in before or after work or during a lunch break. The only problem is that my office is pretty casual in my building. People that work on the same project that I do work across the street in another building wear more business attire, but not in my building. I'd look out of place. Should I start dressing up a day or 2 a week so this is established as the norm. I actually tried to do this in the past just because it made me feel better about myself and more professional and I felt really out of place all day. I also don't know how my new boss (part of why I want to leave) would react. Most of the time I'm better dressed than him in a polo and khakis. There is a state career fair I'd like to go to at the end of the month.

First of all, you are allowed to look for a job if you desire. So you shouldn't even have to worry about what people think or say. But if you do, or if you are afraid of getting fired if you are "caught" looking you might just want to tell people you had something to do before or after work. And if they are nosy enough to request that you elaborate, and if you are ok with a small lie, say you are going to dinner with friends, or say you have a wedding or some such little story. Best of luck to you.

positioned on a gloomy in good shape, white shirt and a stunning good coloration tie (pink or blue perchance). Conservative is extra useful. in my opinion i does not comprehend an Armani in good shape from one off the rack at JC Penneys. I in basic terms comprehend whilst somebody is on the industry interior the place of work to interview that they are wearing a consultant way. you purely have the only time to make a universal effect. in case you "gown down" and don't look as in case you took the attempt and time to place forth a consultant apperance then the HR individual will look down upon you. a thank you to make the interviewer not self unsleeping? gown precise and that's that. I surely have on no account been self unsleeping in an interview no rely what a individual is wearing around the table from me. extra useful suggestion to you would be to coach for this interview. examine up on the corporate and study it so which you would be able to ask clever questions. practice solutions for the questions you comprehend they'll ask (the place do you notice your self in 5 years, why you desire to artwork here) so which you do not stumble whilst asked. in case you like a job badly then you definately could be arranged for the beef of the interview. the variety you look performs a super function in no rely if or not you're employed, sure. yet what concerns is a consultant visual attraction not the label on the interior the jacket. stop stressful lots appropriate to the clothing and start up off making waiting for the interview so which you would be able to get this interest.

Wear layers of clothing that will be easy to take off and change into without flashing the whole world. Wear an undershirt over your tee so that you can comfortably put on a button down, wear appropriate socks with your tennis and slip into your other shoes in the car. Pants will be pretty difficult. Maybe you can wear those tear off pants and slip on your trousers.
Lay your jacket in your trunk and put it on when you get to your interview parking lot.
