I'm 17 and in a couple hours i'm going to pick up an application today at a family owned, local very small grocery store. I don't own anything dressy/conservative, i only have jeans and tee shirts. I don't have time to go out and buy dressy clothes, so what can i do with the clothes i have? Would they not even consider hiring me is if wore jeans and a tee? Also what should i wear to the interview (if there is one)? Oh and i can't borrow any clothes from my friends and my mom does not have any clothes that fit me.

  1. WoW First you need to buy dressy clothes for your next interview. Wear any kind of dress you own


  2. hmmmm, you don't have very many options.  Try to keep it simple than.  Dark denim and black, brown, etc. t-shirt that is not too tight and has nothing written on it.  Long sleeves would be better though.  Other than than, just make sure make-up is subtle, hair is conservative, and no piercings (except in each ear).  The goal is to look as responsible as possible.  If there are other people up for the job, make yourself stand out in other ways.  Ask to speak to the manager/owner talk with them for a bit about why you think you will be the best for the job, follow-up (don't wait for them to call you), and relax and be yourself.  Good Luck!

  3. Outfit isn't a primary concern about hiring workers. It is important in a way, but character and self-confidence is one of the most important key for passing interviews.

  4. for a local grocery store..

    probably most of the employees are wearing jeans or khakis and tee shirts..unless they have a company polo.

    jeans & tees for you application pick up is perfect.

    for an interview-if there is one.. try jeans and a polo

    it wont be as casual as a tee but yet still casual &

    appropriate for a grocery store. you would look

    ridiculous dressed up fancy for a grocery store interview.

    this is my personal opinion. hope it helped!!!

    goodluck!!! =)

  5. You make sure you are very neat looking otherwise.  Be porfessional and very earnest in your desire for the job.  Wear the best jeans and tee.  Tuck the tee in.

  6. Just smile a lot and be super sweet, they won't see past the personality!

  7. Whoa you are desperately in need of a new wardrobe. But you can always  dress up jeans. Do you own like, a nice summer jacket? Or do you have any blouses of some sort? Do you at least have a pair of black pants? If you do, wear those, because they are dressy enough to get by with a tee shirt, depending on the **** though.

  8. wear one of your better looking PLAIN tee shirts, and a really pretty chain.  then, put on some fitting jeans that maybe can look more like slacks, but nothing too light or with holes in them. and throw on a pair of wedges or pumps or if you dont have those, then some nice dressy flat shoes....a word of advice....ALWAYS have something dressy & conservative in your closet b/c you're going to need them for times like this, and others as well. hope you get the job !
