ok guys currently having a debate with the boyfriend on this subject and i would like the opinion of the rest of you......
At an interview if you were the employer and i were the employee and i showed up for the interview in a suit are you more likely to hire me than if i was just wearing my jeans and a nice top hair and make up done looking like ive made the effort but not put a suit on???
according to my boyfriend if he was the employer and i showed up to the interview NOT wearing a suit or suitable equivalent for a female he wouldnt even let me in the office for the interview he would just turn me away there and then...... I feel this is a form of discrimination but he is adament it is NOT discrimination.... the way i put it to him was it doesnt matter a damn what im wearing my mind is still the same im still capable of doing the job and in my view its discrimination. im not turning up in scruffy old jeans with holes in them or paint all over them im smartly but casually dressed.
please give me your views people!!

Hiya
Sorry but i agree with your BF, If i was an employer i would hire the person in a suit, first impressions last, if you look smart & look like you have made an effort that first impression lasts. I know what you mean about whats in your head, but if you were that clever you wud know how important it is to dress smart for an interview. I dont class this as discrimination.
