Hello,
The impossible has happened and I have been offered an interview for an academic position. I'm trying not to get too excited because the chances of me getting the job are probably not that high. So, I'm concentrating on my outfit instead: What do I wear to appear professional but still have a semblance of my personality?
I am female and generally wear smart-casual when I lecture (a mixture of skirts, blouses, cardigans etc.), however, I didn't know whether a trouser suit or a skirt suit would be more appropriate? I've never worn either before and always feel like they are very corporate but at the same time think that my usually smart attire is not quite smart enough.
Does anyone have any suggestions/experience of what to wear? I would be most grateful for any advice. I actually quite like clothes and if I get a suit I would like to get something that would last for a while.
Thanks for your help and for reading.
:-)
