It goes without saying that you should brush your teeth and use mouthwash before an interview - bad breath is a major turnoff - but if the interview falls later in the day and you're unable to brush directly beforehand, then have some mints before going into the building. Women should avoid looking too trendy; invest in a sensible, closed-toe shoe in a neutral color that doesn't have an extremely high or platform heel. A neutral-colored suit, either in a dress, skirt or pants style with a jacket is always a good bet. You might get creative by layering such a sedate suit with a blouse in an interesting color - for example, a turquoise button-down shirt paired with a chocolate brown pantsuit would look smart and imaginative. Accessories should be toned down and kept to a minimum, as should makeup. Make an impression without standing out too much, and the job could be yours.
