Guest Guest6235 Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 What do men generally wear for an interview in WA? I'm guessing it would be dependent on the type of position you are going for. So for an office based position would it be an open neck shirt, shoes & trousers or does anyone wear a suit jacket? I would have thought you would be sweating your nuts off in a suit Jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portlaunay Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 I wear a jacket in winter. There's a chain called Country Road that get the smart casual thing right IMO. http://www.countryroad.com.au/shop/man I've worn a tie in the past but I don't think it's necessary, I only do it when I want to.

alant Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 When I attended interviews in Perth I wore exactly what I would wear to an interview in the UK; suit, shirt & tie. To be fair it was hot but I carried my suit jacket until I got to the location then put it on. I suppose what you wear is dependant on what industry you are in (I'm an accountant) but you could check with your recruitment agent (if you secured the interview via one) what the interview dress code expectations of the interviewer are - I was told for one interview that I should not wear a suit or a tie. From my experience, most office based workers don't wear a full suit & tie to work - it's shirt, tie & shoes. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akasully2 Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 My hubby has always worn a shirt and nice pants for interviews. Were they boxers or y-fronts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven_gers Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 That's an excellent question IMO, I'm a plumber/gas fitter and I'm due to land on the 19th Jan in Perth, and I've not been to an interview for 13 years, pretty daunting to say the least thinking about attending 1 and figuring out what to wear? I guess albeit I have a dirty job, I'm still the face of the company I represent and Im pretty sure the manager interviewing candidates would want some1 who takes care of their appearance? Or is it different in Oz? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpakey Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 My hubby has always worn a shirt and nice pants for interviews. Yeh, I rarely go commando too! This was a funny response reading it from the UK, although I know what you mean (made us all laugh in the house) On a serious note, a BRILLIANT question though!
