non-suit interview attire

[moandjo]

I have an interview for a very part time position on Friday. I spoke to a friend who currently works there she said not to wear a suit. She didn't wear one and thought it would be overkill. I'm a pharmacist if that matters. I have nice black pants, but since I have a 8 month old, I haven't really bought anything recently. Any ideas? Of course I want to keep in MM.

Go to target and see if you can find a nice top. Or wear a nice top with a cardigan.

If I was absolutely sure a suit would be overkill, I'd wear suit separates.

I'd do the black pants, button down shirt and a cardigan.

I would go with a sheath dress and cardigan. You should be able to find one at Kohls or Target for relatively cheap.

I'll echo what the others have said and also add that I would wear nice black pumps with the black dress pants you wear. Make sure they are polished and don't have any scuff marks on them. Wear nice yet conservative jewelry too.

Thanks for all of your ideas. I was planning on wearing pumps with black pants and conservative silver jewelry. I hate spending money as I have 15 lbs to lose yet. It is going to be a weird interview as it is since the manager is a past student of mine.

I agree; I would either do heels, pants, blouse, and cardigan or a skirt or dress with a cardigan.
