Do you appear like someone who is working for a good company, do you appear as someone who is working for a company which fosters a good productive safe and secure work environment? All these question are running through the mind of the job candidate sitting before you.
Male or female interviewers need to look successful, calm and well, attractive in a businesslike way.
Wearing tthe right clothes is a must of course but also having the right style of make up applied is imperative. The goldilocks look is a good barometer here. Not too hot not to cold. Put in real terms, not too red lipstick or too blue eyeshadow. Go for a fresh daytime look.
Men use a anti shine product if you suffer from perspiration. You really don't want your candidate to think you are nervous or rattled.
