Dressing For Success - What is wrong with people?

funny. my fellow manager hired a guy who 'fit the image' and was well dressed, well spoken, etc.

he surfs the web most of his day

i found it funny :)

i love how every other ef poster is a high power executive who makes or breaks peoples careers on a daily basis
serioulsy lol
thank god i don't work in a prentenious industry, wearing a suit everyday is sooo uncomfortable and fake
my doctor favors tie-dies and has a big bushy beard...yet he still is professional and has a bumping business.

i know i'm not gonna change your opinion or the business model, but think about how shallow it is to solely judge someone on wether they are wearing a suit or not.
all a suit is is fabric, nothing more. you can be the shadiest, dirtiest mofo around and a suit will not change that. true class can only come from within, not from the fabric you wear
 
I agree and that is not what I based my option on. It is a small part. Read my other posts. He did not WOW me. There are 2 others with the same knowledge and skill set. They looked ready to take the postion that day! When you meet with 11 people and 1 does not have a suit on, it stands out in a bad way. Ya know. The job requires a suit. Why would you not wear one on your interview? That's it.

lol i don't even own a suit
i really enjoy the fact that i will never have to wear one in a work setting
how uncomfortable, esp in the sun.
 
Come on people! Everyfreakingbody knows that whether we like it or not - you never get a second chance to make a first impression. If you work in an industry where jeans and T-shirt are acceptable work attire then no duh, it wouldn't matter. But this guy has experience. WTF was he thinking showing up to the interview wearing a polo shirt and slacks?

Would it surprize you all to know that I actually was advised (and listened) to take out my nose-piercing before facing a judge in traffic court. WTF does minimal jewelry have to do with my penalty for speeding? THE IMPRESSION I MAKE ON THE JUDGE - THAT'S WHAT. This is Texas and he was a Good Ole Boy. I found him to be very reasonable (had to sit there for 1 hour till it was my turn so I heard a lot.). Would it have mattered had I not removed the little dangly from my nose? I don't know. But seeing as how I was facing some stiff fines, why would I not go that extra mille?
