Danny Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Suit and tie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoyoyo Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Suit and tie Yup, always the best thing to wear.That way if it is casual, you'll look better than the others still. But don't wear the tie Joe Maher stylee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Joe was wearing a tie? I thought he'd just got some ribbon and tied a knot in it round his neck Either way, especially if it's for something like the Army/Navy/RAF, do it formal.Maybe try and wear some crotchless trousers and crotchless boxers too, it'll get you in the sailor way of doing things. They'll appreciate the effort you went to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

br3n Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 They'd love you in a gimp suit.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleee Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 f**k taking a change, wear a suit shopping and see how differantly your treated when you go into expensive shops and shit. Maybe that's weird?Anyway, a suit should go down well, appearances are some silly percentage of first impressions and like others have said, it'll give you the edge over those who choose not to wear one.

We had the royal navy people come to our school and tech us about interview techneiques.The Keys To A Good Interview. (acording to the army/navy/airforce)1.You should wear suit and tie2. Shake the interviews hand (nice strong grip)3. Always make eye contact.4. Be as friendly as posable.5. Be as open as possable.6. Don't slouch but lean in.7. Smile 8. Give detailed answers to questions.9. Talk your self up as mutch as possable don't give any neg points about your self unless requested.10. Be confident but not cockey.Hope these help and good luck .

poopipe Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 all good stuff. and...you should be positive about stuff they ask about rather than negative. eg. if you quit your last job cos it was shit don't tell them that, tell them you wanted to do something that challenged you more or suited you better.

Proper trousers add inches onto me though, compared to when im wearing baggy jeans, which is all the time.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
