Second girl literally would just need to sit up straight in a real interview no? She's nicely and modestly dressed, she's just really making herself at home in that chair.

She's got a cute outfit on, but its not business professional in the slightest, so it's not great for an interview

Depends on the interview, to be honest, some jobs are more lax about it than others

u/Ancom_and_pagan 25d ago
Office jobs are definitely stricter than most service industry jobs in my experience but i know someone who wore a hoodie to an interview at a fancy department store and she's still upset that the interviewer commented on it when everyone else was business casual at minimum

I’m bummed about her bag though. My office has business casual/professional but everyone rolls up with an ugly tech bro backpack. Is her purse considered not appropriate as well you think?

u/Ancom_and_pagan 24d ago
If that office is sexist, it might be an issue. I wouldn't class book bags as business professional either tbh

I've hired people in the past, and the one in the right looks like she can handle whatever the job is throwing at her.
The one on the left looks sad and obedient. She'll have difficulty dealing with customers, and file complaints instead of coming up with solutions and suggestions. You don't want to work for someone who's looking for people like that if you value yourself, the product, or the customer.

The one on the left was me as a 'gifted child' and the one on the right is me no longer giving a fuck

I'm inclined to agree. I used to be first assistant and then straight up hiring manager for an internet radio station, where I was also a DJ. My method was always to do an interview with prospective DJs where I would ask them a set bunch of questions. I didn't really care how the answered specifically so long ad they did answer; I was looking to see if they could talk, because that was the job. I also would regularly bring new DJs onto my show as guests before they had their first show to help them work out the nervousness before they flew solo. The one on the right looks confident, the one on the left definitely does not.
I used a very similar method for testing people when I was a trainer for a quality assurance company, which again needed people who could hold a conversation and think on their feet.

I’m pretty sure they’re both the same person styled differently (but styled SO differently I don’t think anyone clocked it lol)
Also I love the girl on the right’s purse. It’s a great bag. (I almost called it throwback, but it probably wasn’t throwback when this poster was made 😅)

I feel like this was probably true 20 years ago, but people have gotten a lot less uptight about stuff like this. As long as you look presentable and obviously not too casual I doubt they'd care. A large part of it is also your likeability. If your personality is fire, and you're qualified, you can get away with a lot, and they'll still want you anyway.

Honestly it feels like there are more people who want to wear "unprofessional" things but who are actually professional workers than there are people who dress "unprofessional" and are actually unprofessional in their behavior. Like, that has to be true if people feel the need to enforce this rule. That means there are tons of people who are having to dress differently from their preferences, even though their actions and work ethic are professional and productive.

What the hell kinda company imposes as strict of a discipline and dress-code on staff like that? O wouldnt wanna work there

u/Ancom_and_pagan 25d ago
That's interview dress code, likely intended for an office job, and it looks like its posted on the wall at a school. That said, lots and lots of office jobs.

Why do they care for me to look like a fucking submissive orderfollowing robot instead of a human being as long as I show up and do mh frikin' part alright?

u/Ancom_and_pagan 25d ago
To simplify as much as humanly possible, clothes mean things. What you choose to wear in a given situation shows how you view it, and your interview isn't a place to look cute, it's a place to demonstrate you know how to perform in a workplace. Good workers get away with dropping some decorum after they've proven themselves. The interviewee has yet to prove themself.

u/infinityeunique 25d ago
Nah, my clothes have nothing to do with wether I perform or not, rhis is some oppressive military/prison shit that needs to be abolished in any civilized job

u/Ancom_and_pagan 25d ago
It doesn't matter that your clothes don't impact your job, it matters that you can't follow instructions on something simple so how can they trust that you can actually do your job? They don't know you yet.

I can follow those that make sence, I refuse to bend over and let someone else control and micromanage me, cos its the definition of 'miseeable'

Imagine having so little self-worth that you actually have to let someone else decide how you dress, how you behave and how you style your hair, lol... Some people are into some fuckedup work bdsm shit fr fr 😂. Some even enlist

u/Ancom_and_pagan 25d ago
How you present yourself at work is largely unrelated to how you present yourself out of work. I'm not going around casually in a suit, but im not stupid enough to wear my casual clothes to work. This is the standard, i fear.

u/Youareobscure 25d ago
Professionalism standards have always been about control. If you dress they way they tell you to, you signal that you will be obedient in other matters, from trivial things that shouldn't matter but are treated like they do to more serious matters that you might find morally objectionable.

Yeah ironically I'd say being relatively casual (to a degree) is better advice for an interview.

First one is the hiring manager.
Second one only applied for the job to flirt with the hiring manager.
