Wearing the same suit to second interview

Difficult · 07-30-2009, 08:42 PM

Do you think they would notice? I'd change the tie of course.

They might notice. If you have another suit I'd switch. If you don't, then just switch the shirt and tie.

Damn, well, I have other suits. Still wanted to wear that one though, its my favorite. What do you think for the 2nd interview: black pinstrip or brown?

Can't go wrong with black. Black is always classy. Spice it up with a nice tie for contrast.

Depends on what company/position youre applying for. If you are getting interviewed for a job as a merchandising expert for Versace then they might notice, if you're getting interviewed for an accounting position, I assure you they wont

I'd wear the same suit but change the accent colors (shirt/tie)

The only reason I ask is because i was arguing with a few friends from college. Some said they wore the same suit to repeat interviews, others said that brown is never appropriate for interviews. I figured I'd let the forum decide who is right.

I wouldn't say brown is never appropriate. It depends on the brown and how you look in it. Not everyone can pull off a brown suit (I can't for instance).

If you really love the first suit then just change the shirt and tie.
