Dress for success. Remember, you are marketing a product (yourself). What the contact sees when greeting you is your attire; thus, you must make every effort to have the proper dress for the type of job you are seeking or doing. Dressing properly will give you a competitive edge and a positive first impression.
Standard job interviewing attire for men is a conservative dark navy or grey two-piece business suit (of natural fibres, such as wool, if possible). A white long-sleeved button-down dress shirt. - Do dress the part for the job, the company, the industry.

- Don't chew gum, candy, or have any other objects in your mouth
- Do wear a conservative silk tie (that matches the colors in your suit)

- Do wear a belt to match your shoes.
- Don't wear a lot of cologne or perfume
- Do remove all jewellery, including earrings.
- Do properly tie your tie
