Hey Sima – great perspective here, and it’s something not everyone thinks about. To answer this question you must think about each persons situation and if they are currently working or are looking for work.

Well… seeing as I’m already sneaking outside at 3:00 PM at my current job in order to do the phone interview, it might raise suspicions if I also did it in a suit and nicer shoes. Interviews are all about presentation. In a phone interview, your physical presentation is irrelevant. Save the suit for the face-to-face.

Hour 3, I cheated and am in sweats and not pajamas. No make up, hair pulled back and my Starbucks is getting cold. It is 10 after 10 and I really need a shower before the next conference call.

Good thing it’s Friday, casual day, and I can wear jeans!
