Big Question: Should I Keep my Blazer on During an Interview?

Have an answer to one of the biggest job interview questions.

Many people keep wandering if they should wear a jacket or blazer during a job interview. Will you make a nice impression to your future bosses if you remove your jacket or it doesn’t really matter?

What would you wear if you had an interview with President Obama? I would wear a pink pair of pants and a black top like this journalist. Simple, casual, and totally appropriate. Blazer is not always important for a job interview.

What would you wear if you had an interview with President Obama? I would wear a pink pair of pants and a black top like the outfit of this journalist. Simple, casual, and totally appropriate. Blazer is not always important for a job interview.

There are a few things you should know before you make the big decision.

  1. If you have confidence for your talents and abilities, a blazer will not make any difference. You will impress no matter what.
  2. If you are in danger of sweating you should totally remove immediately your jacket.
  3. If your future boss asks if you would like to remove your jacket, you should do it.
  4. Remove it if you don’t like it and you don’t feel comfortable wearing it.
  5. Finally, you should remove your blazer or jacket if everyone in the company is more casual dressed.
If you don't have confidence...blazer is the last thing you should care about.

If you don’t have confidence… wearing or not a blazer is the last thing you should care about.

Keep your blazer on if..

  1. Your interview is for executive or top management positions (or generally for prestigious positions).
  2. You look amazing with your blazer on!
  3. It’s new and gives you extra points of style and accuracy.

Don’t forget that wearing a blazer is not necessary in a job interview. You can wear a shirt and your coat or just a shirt or maybe a nice and beautiful wrap dress.
