Salam ladies,
I have been going to
tons of job interviews these days and everyday when I get dressed I stand in
front of my closet wondering what I should wear. You want to give a good impression
and have a cute outfit as well as be modest. So I thought I’d share some outfit
ideas and tips.
If you are opting to
wear pants pick a simple color like black or beige. Make sure they aren’t made
out of denim. Jeans are a no no.
Wear a simple hijab.
No funky patterns or crazy bold colors.
Bring a copy of your
resume and cover letter even if they already have one.
Bring a nice roomy
bag so you can put any papers they give you.
Wear flats. This is more
of my preference you can wear heels if you want to but no sneakers. The reason I
opt for flats is because I usually have to walk a lot to get to the place and
wearing heels ends up killing my feet.
Below are two outfit
ideas I put together. Not all the pieces need to be worn with that outfit I just
put them there to give you ideas.
 |
| Outfit #1: Pants |
If you are wearing
pants like this outfit I would pick a different colored blouse so you don’t look
like a blob of black. Make sure the blouse is long so it can be modest and
hijab friendly. This outfit is pretty plain so you can add accessories like
bracelets, necklaces, and rings to dress it up. Also I choose plain flats but
you can opt for cuter heels if you prefer. You can add a blazer to this sort of
outfit if you want.

| Outfit #2: Dress |
This outfit is more
similar to what I would wear. I would wear a plain long maxi dress like this
really cute purple one. I think you should stay away from funky or floral patterned
dresses. I added a white blazer which makes the whole outfit more bussinessy (let’s
pretend that’s a word). I choose white because I thought it would go well with
the purple. If your dress is black, or grey I would recommend a more colorful
blazer like pink, coral, or blue instead of a black blazer because black blazer
on top of black dress would be way too much black in my opinion. You should definitely
wear a watch and you can add bangles around it (I love arm candy!) (BTW I know I kind of went a little crazy on the
bracelets on this outfit but I wouldn’t wear all of it. It’s just an idea of
what you can use to accessorize your outfit.)
So yeah those are my
Job Interview outfit tips and ideas and I hope they helped. If you ladies have
any ideas and tips let me know them I’m always looking for new ways to dress
for interviews. Good Luck with your interviews and keep me in your duas.
Inshallah we all find awesome jobs soon.
Allahafiz ladies,
