Meeting with employment agency

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
I am going to meet with an employment agency and don't know what to wear. Should I dress really smart i.e. suit jacket or just smart like black trousers and a smart top?

    I think black trousers and a smart top and a nice coat will probably do the trick.

    I wouldn't overdress for it to be honest but like Wyetry has said, just dress smartly.

    When I went to a employment agency last year, I was wearing my normal clothes and came out with a job.

    Yeah i really wouldn't worry, I've gone in just wearing jeans and a baggy jumper before now, they're more interested in how you come across, especially if it's just a temping agency or something.

    No need for a suit. As long as you look smart.

    I'd say, as long as you look like you have made an effort, you should be fine. When i went it was just spare of the moment when i was in town, and i was wearing normal casual clothes, so i wouldnt worry too much.

    We're talking about recruitment agencies not the flipping Job Centre.

    Wear something smart, but don't overdress at all.
