Job Fair...Dress for Success! No Cell Phones! No Shorts!
If you're heading for one of those job fairs in Las Vegas next week, it's important to follow a few golden rules if 'ya hanker to land gainful employment with great pay to boot!
For starters?
Dress for success - and that means - no shorts (for starters)!
And, steer clear of peacock ensembles like the one that the Television News anchor (Fox News 5) sported on air bright-and-early at-the-crack-of-dawn this morning.
The hapless newsie committed a fashion faux pas when he teamed an elegant wine-colored dress shirt (trimmed with a starched-white collar!) with a tie (in a lighter shade of rose) against a dark silhouette (i.e. a chic two-piece suit).
In a nutshell?
The unfashionable fop whipped up a "pimp look" that would have turned-off any employer.
In the altnerative?
Well - an understated tie in conservative colors (with a shirt sans constrasting blinding-white collar) - would surely been preferable (and triggered a nod of approval from a potential boss).
There are another couple of tips worth following, too.
Ignore a cell phone if it goes off during the course of the job interview.
If you throw caution to the window - and elect to answer it - your resume will probably be tossed in the garbage (go figure).
And, dashing outside for a smoke is a no-no, too.
Any Nun will tell 'ya, it is a dirty habit!
In fact, don't show up at a one-on-one interview with bold splashes of cologne - clinging to your body perfect - either.
By the way, as we say in show biz, break a leg!
