A big job interview is coming up and you are feeling very confident. You have anticipated the questions they might ask and have prepared some great answers. Fresh copies of your resume are sitting in your backpack. Wait a minute. Did you say backpack? Are you really going to walk into a job interview carrying a backpack? Next thing you'll say is that you're planning to wear jeans and a t-shirt. Uh-oh. You better ask yourself these questions before you get dressed.

    What should I wear?

    我應該如何著裝
？

    Generally, it's a good idea to wear a suit for a job interview. Go with something simple, in a neutral tone. The more conservative your field is, the more conservative your suit should be. For example, if you're applying for a job in an investment firm, go with a navy blue or dark gray suit.

    What if my interview is for a job in a more casual setting?

    如果我的麵試的是一份很隨意的工作崗位呢？

    It's a good idea to match your interview attire to the prospective job. If you are applying for a job working on a warehouse floor, you will look out of place wearing a formal suit. Keeping that in mind, dress a little better than you would for a day at work and make sure your clothes are neat and clean.

，並(bing)且(qie)要(yao)確(que)保(bao)衣(yi)服(fu)幹(gan)淨(jing)整(zheng)潔(jie)。

    My interview is for a job in an accounting firm. Traditionally this field is conservative, but this particular firm may be a little more casual. How should I dress?

    我要應聘的是一家會計師事務所。傳統來說，會記師職業都是很保守的。但是這家公司可能比較開放，我應該如何著裝呢？

    You can't go wrong in a suit, but if you want to give more of an impression of "fitting in" then you need to find out how people actually dress for work at that firm. One way to do this is to observe people arriving for work. Choose any day other than a Friday, which is when some companies allow more casual dress. Again, follow the rule of dressing better for the interview than you would for a typical day at the office.

    Do I have to buy a new suit?

    我需要買一套新的西裝嗎？

    As long as your suit is in good condition and not outdated, you don't have to buy a new one. If you do decide to purchase a new suit, buy the best one you can afford and make sure you don't get anything too trendy. You want your investment to last.

    What shoes should I wear?

    我應該穿什麼樣的鞋？

    In all instances, wear closed-toe shoes. Sandals are never appropriate for a job interview, unless you are applying for a job as a lifeguard. Black shoes match everything （yes, even your navy blue suit）. Stick with a conservative style. Women should not wear very high heels.

    任何情況下都穿封閉式的鞋子。除非你應聘的是救生員的工作，否則涼鞋是不合適的。黑色的鞋子很百搭（是的，即使你穿深藍色的西裝也是相配的）.堅持保守派的風格。女人不應該穿太高跟的鞋子。

    Must I buy new shoes?

    我需要買新鞋嗎？

    No. Shoes you've already worn are fine, unless they are in bad condition or out of style. A little shoe polish may be in order here.

    不需要
，隻要鞋子沒壞或過時，那穿你已有的鞋子就好了。將你的舊鞋擦上一點鞋油就好了。

    What about my nails?

    我的指甲呢？

    Your nails should be clean. A man's nails should be kept short and a woman's nails shouldn't be excessively long and should be bare or polished in a neutral color.

    你的指甲應該幹幹淨淨的。男人的指甲應該剪短
，而女人的指甲不應該太長
，如果要塗指甲油，塗個淡色調吧。

    I love wearing jewelry. Can I wear it for the interview?

    我喜歡戴珍珠項鏈，我麵試時可以戴著嗎

？

    Modest jewelry is fine, but don't wear large earrings or a thick chain.

    適當的珠寶是可以的
，但是不要佩戴超大的耳環或者厚厚的項鏈。

    What about makeup? How much is okay?

    化妝呢
？什麼程度最好
？

    Don't paint on the makeup. Keep it simple and use neutral colors.

    不要濃妝豔抹。淡妝就可以了。

    What should I carry with me -- a purse, a briefcase, a backpack?

    我應該帶錢包
，公文包，還是背包？

    By all means, leave the backpack at home. You want to look professional, not like you're taking a stroll across campus. A woman can carry a small to medium sized handbag. A man or woman can carry a briefcase if he or she wishes, or a folder or portfolio.
