For male job seekers, a suit is one of the must-have grooming factors in an interview. Because, the main characteristics of the suit are the appearance of the straight, smooth lines, and comfortable wearing. If you wear a tie, it will look more high and simple, so that a masculine temperament can be perfectly displayed.
American behaviorist Michael Argyle did experiments: When he appeared in the same place in different instrumentations, the feedback was quite different. When he appeared in a suit with the face of a gentleman, strangers, whether asking him for directions or inquiring about things, were polite and quite literate; and when he dressed as a wanderer, the people who approached him to fire or borrow money were mostly unemployed nomads. It can be seen that whether it is in business entertainment or interpersonal communication, the meaning expressed by the instrument is better than the language, which can completely penetrate a person's soul and inner temperament, and decide whether you can get the favor of others. Therefore, it is very important to wear a suit during the interview. Despite this, in interpersonal communication, many job seekers will still seriously damage their image because of mistakes in wearing suits. Job seeker Cheng Fang made a mistake in the interview, not only failed to let the suit help him win a good first impression, but also was despised by the interviewer, resulting in the failure of the interview.
After much hardship, Hou Liang finally won an interview at a job fair to apply for a sales manager at a private company. Cheng Fang is familiar with foreign-funded enterprises that attach great importance to the dress etiquette of employees, and sales managers must pay attention to appearance. So he bought a high-end suit with a high price and happily wore it to the interview on the day of the interview. In order to show that his suit was high-end, he couldn't bear to remove the brand roll label on the cuffs. But unexpectedly, the result was self-defeating. It was this that made his interview end before it had officially begun. After he entered the interview room, he respectfully handed his resume to the interviewer, who happened to see the roll mark on Cheng Fang's cuff. Hou Liang also observed the interviewer's eyes, and there was still a little joy in his heart. The interviewer put down his resume, his face full of contempt, and said to him: "Your suit is very high-end, I think our customers will be scared away by your high-end suit." ”
Below, let's take a look at the details of what suits are wearing that have become the failure of your image.
1. The suit is one size bigger
When interacting with people, if a person wears a larger suit, it often exposes a funny sense of "a little person wearing a coat".
2. The color and decor are not elaborate
Some people like to chase fashion trends, in order to show their fashion taste, wear some fashionable colorful or glowing suits, go to socialize, but they are despised.
3. Buttons are all buckled
Wearing a suit to attend the interview is a calm, professional performance, and the main purpose is not to keep out the cold. If you button up the suit, this is extremely rude behavior, and it will definitely leave a bad impression in the interviewer's mind that he does not understand etiquette.
4. Keep the cuff roll mark
The cuffs of the brand suit will be branded, and many people will not remove it in order to show their suit brand, which will not only make people laugh in the interview, but also affect the interviewer's impression of you.
5. The belly meets three buckles
In life, if you find that the belly of the person next to you is tightly tied in a three-button suit, will you be nervous for him, feeling that the button may jump at any time, and the contempt in your heart will suddenly arise: Will this person wear a suit?
6. Shirts are too worn
Many men always think that even if the shirt worn in the jacket has some small stains and grinding the edges, it should not affect the decent appearance, but this is easy to give people a kind of untrimmed performance, especially the wear of the neckline is more obvious.
Also, wearing a suit cannot be worn with a short-sleeved shirt.
7. Bulging suit pockets
In ordinary life, men will fill their pockets with leather bags, keys, mobile phones, change and other items, but when you wear a suit to an interview, your bulging suit pocket will completely destroy the elegant texture of the suit.
8. Black leather shoes with white sports socks
During the interview, you stretch out a pair of white sneakers with sneakers, or feet with black leather shoes, and your image in the interviewer's mind begins to decline sharply.
So how do you wear a suit correctly to show your charm? Male job seekers need to do the following:
1. When choosing the size of the suit, the first point is to close the shoulders, the pen is straight, the length is to hang the hands down, the length of the coat is just to the lower edge of the hips, or almost to the second joint of the index finger after the hand naturally droops, the sleeve length is just enough to reach the palm of the tiger, or the hem is flush with the thumb, too long or too short is not right. The visual impression is to reveal that the suit is one-to-one with the trousers in order to wear the perfect proportions.
2. Follow the tricolor principle. The three-color principle means that when men wear suits, the color of the whole body must be limited to three kinds, and the law of trinity is that when men wear suits, they must ensure that the colors of the three parts of the body are coordinated and unified, that is, the colors of shoes, belts, and briefcases must be unified.
3. Generally speaking, when wearing a suit, when a single row of single buckles, can be buckled or not; when two buckles can be fully buckled; more than three buckles, it is advisable to keep the last buckle not buttoned; but when double-breasted, it must be buckled.
4. No matter how expensive the value of the suit you buy, give up the idea of showing off and remove the brand label that removes the cuffs so that you will not be rude in front of the interviewer.
5. If your figure is obese, you should choose a double-breasted suit to give people a sense of stability, and avoid wearing a suit with a waist that is too obvious, especially a style with more than three buttons, which is easy to expose shortcomings and cause visual pressure on others.
6. When wearing a suit, pay attention not only to the external beauty of the suit, but also to the inner beauty of the shirt. Shirt collar type, texture, style should be coordinated with the coat and tie, in the color selection should be in line with personal characteristics. Pure white and sky blue shirts are generally a must.. Pay attention to keeping the neckline and cuffs clean and neat, not too worn. In general, shirt sleeve length exceeds suit sleeve length of about 0.5 to 1 cm beautiful and polite.
7. The suit pays attention to the smooth line, and when wearing the suit, try not to put anything in the pocket, and hold at most one wallet. Do not pin your phone or a large string of keys on your trousers, which will ruin the overall feeling of the suit, and it is best to choose a leather bag with a better texture to prevent your belongings.
8. When wearing a suit, the matching of shoes and socks should also be exquisite. Socks should be long rather than short, so that after sitting down, it is advisable not to show the calves. The color of the socks should be coordinated with the suit, and the dark socks are more secure, because the light socks can only be matched with a light suit, and it is not suitable for a dark suit. The style and texture of the shoes also directly affect the overall image of men. In terms of color, it is recommended to choose black or dark brown leather shoes, because these two colors of leather shoes are unchanged classics, light leather shoes can only be paired with light suits, if paired with dark suits will give people a top-heavy feeling. Casual style leather shoes are best paired with a one-piece casual suit. No matter what shoes you wear, you must pay attention to keeping the shoes bright and clean, and the smooth leather shoes will give people a professional and neat feeling.
The seemingly small suit wearing details greatly affect the success or failure of your interview. Therefore, job seekers must follow the above suit etiquette, let the suit show your manhood, and help you win the interview.
