The Internship Interview

Monday, April 8, 2013

How are you guys spending your summer break? 
Most teenagers or twenty somethings are spotted in beaches or resorts creating their own YOLO moments but here I am stuck at the comforts of my own home. Instead of sulking around thinking of reasons why I'm not part of the so-called YOLO crowd, I just decided to be productive and applied for an internship. I won't say which company yet. I might jinx it! So consider my lips sealed for the moment.

After a day or two of passing my application, I received a text from the company asking if I could come for an interview. I couldn't have been more excited! However, I'm not really sure what got into me cause I ended up not preparing my internship interview outfit which then resulted to today's underdressed interviewee award. I knew I don't want to look like a desperate fashion victim but I don't wanna look boring either! I should have infused some color into my outfit at the very least. But it's too late for regrets. It's not like I can magically tie-dye my pants while waiting for my turn and say... "oooh I'm into this whole ombre tie dye thing right now". Sigh. I sure did learn my lesson. 
Better come prepared! Overdressed is much better than underdressed! 
What about you? What are your job/internship interview lessons?

P.S. I'm applying for an internship at a fashion company so yes, I should have been overly conscious about my outfit. Or maybe I'm just being overly paranoid? What are your thoughts? Let me know!

  1. If this was your outfit, you're being overly paranoid. You're right on trend with the black & white, you added a good amount of pattern/neutral with your bag, and you look simple, fashionable yet understated, and totally classy. This way, you may not have the most interesting outfit in the room, but you know you can't go wrong!
