Guys:

• Don’t wear jorts. Ever.
• Do own one nice suit.
• Do leave the bedazzled T-shirts at home. They are fine for Jersey… but not Ames
• Don’t wear brown shoes and black belt, vice versa
• Do spritz yourselves with cologne or aftershave. Emphasis on the spritz.
• Don’t have a no-shave September. Save it for November.
• Don’t wear your pants lower than the area they were designed for.

Girls:

• Do keep the heels less than 5 inches. You are trying to get a career, not be a pro.
• Don’t assume that your “going-out” clothes will be acceptable for an interview. What would your mother say?
• Do keep the girls in check.
• Don’t have a no-shave September. Save it for never.
• Do a teeth check. Spinach in the teeth is very unfortunate. Not to mention embarrassing.

Moral of the story: Wear something sophisticated and professional. You want something that will get you noticed for the right reasons, like your awesome resume or strong networking skills.
