Wondering what to wear when interviewing for a household staffing position? Some obvious no-no’s include:
- Mini skirts
- Tank tops
- Tight clothing
- Overly baggy clothing
- Hats
It is important to wear clothes that fit. You are interviewing for a household staffing position and need to look professional and capable. Wearing a suit can create confusion for a family trying to visualize you playing and rolling on the floor with their child. We often times hear from families that they really liked the person but they can never hire them because of their attire or because they are wearing perfume. Keep in mind that some individuals have sensitive noses so wearing perfume or cologne might be a quick and unintentional way to irritate your interviewer. Don’t wear any!
Whether you like it or not you are a role model for your charges and the example starts during the interview.
