I just had a Zoom interview.
On top I had a check casual shirt.
Below I had a pair of trakkie bottoms and Keen sandals (with orange socks!).
🙂
gah! you can't tell this thread you've got a new job without describing what you wore for the interview!
Congratulations, BTW

LOL, good point.
It was an interview over Teams, I wore a fine pale checked shirt with a plain tie.
Oh yeah, Craghopper Kiwi trousers and slippers too.
Pyjamas? Maybe with a T-shirt or jumper on top? Though I usually wear jeans, T-shirt, and socks and slippers for work.
Don’t tell me this is an in-person thing? If so, are you sure you want to do it?
If you want to then I’d go for: regular shoes or black boots, black trousers or black jeans, black crew neck jumper, black suit-style jacket. That’s what I wore for my last in-person interview in 2018.
I’d suggest interview->typical daily work clothes but see ‘pyjamas’ and ‘T-shirt’ above.
I aimed high and am a little nervous I’ve bitten off more than I can chew!
Congratulations!
That’s like work most days? It’d be no fun if there wasn’t something new and difficult most days.
Just resurrecting this thread from a couple of months ago to say thanks for the advice – I start my new job on Monday 😀😀😀😀
Congratulations 🙂 best of luck for Monday.
Im now 2 months in to my new career, and I’m like a new person. I finally have a work/life balance.
The OP has already got the job so this comment is arguably irrelevant.
But, as I think was mentioned previously, the default for interview attire is 1 level smarter than the person you’re interviewing with, erring on the smarter side.
Default to that and you’ll not go far wrong.
Cheers all,
From my recent experience I think @lunge has got it right.
I'm going to be in a student facing admin role at one of the faculties of University of Chester so need to be reasonably well presented but not too formal so it looks like I'm going to need a few more shirts buying.
Not worn shirts regularly at work for years 😯
