What you WEAR to an interview is the second most important factor in making a good first impression. First you should KNOW the company. While you are researching the company, visit the office and take a look at how the staff is dressed. SEE WITH YOUR OWN EYES what the employees are wearing. Then for the interview, try to dress in a similar way. If they are all dressed in a suit and tie, then you should dress in a suit and tie. Take care to note if the ties are solid colors or a mix of colors. If the women employees wear long skirts, then women should wear a long skirt. If employees wore a casual shirt with no tie, you should wear a casual shirt with no tie. If the women all wear pants, you should wear pants. If you see some people dressing casually and others dressing formally, IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO DRESS A LITTLE BIT MORE FORMALLY.
面試的時(shí)候所穿服裝是給對(duì)方下良好印象的第二個(gè)重要因素。首先你應(yīng)該了解你所應(yīng)聘的公司。在對(duì)所應(yīng)聘的公司進(jìn)行研究時(shí),先拜訪公司并觀察那里的工作人員的著裝,親眼觀察你所應(yīng)聘的公司職員的著裝,然后準(zhǔn)備去面試,盡量穿同類的服裝。如果你所應(yīng)聘的公司職員穿西服系領(lǐng)帶,那么你也應(yīng)該穿西服打領(lǐng)帶去面試。留心領(lǐng)帶的顏色是單色還是混合色。如果公司的女性職員身穿長裙,女性應(yīng)聘者也應(yīng)穿長裙去面試。如果公司的女性職員穿短裙不系領(lǐng)帶,那么女性應(yīng)聘者也應(yīng)穿短裙不系領(lǐng)帶,而應(yīng)穿休閑襯衫并不系領(lǐng)帶。如果公司的女性職員 都穿長褲,那么你也應(yīng)穿長褲。如果看到公司職員有些穿著休閑,有些則穿著正式,那么,穿正式一些的服裝總是比穿休閑服裝要好一些。

Being able to FIT IN (to belong and get along with the other employees) is very important. The interviewer will use this first impression to decide if you can work well with the other employees.
能夠與周圍環(huán)境和睦相處也很重要。面試官會(huì)利用面試的第一印象來決定是否你能與其他同事和睦相處。

Another important impression, is one that the employer gets from reading letters of recommendation from your references. Your reference include helpful teachers or old bosses who liked the way you worked. Your teacher or boss will write a letter describing your good qualities.
另一個(gè)重要印象是面試者從閱讀你的推薦信來獲得的。你的推薦人包括那些對(duì)你有幫助的老師和欣賞你的工作方式的前任老板。你的老師或前任老板會(huì)寫一封推薦信,描述你的優(yōu)點(diǎn)。
