I have a job interview with World Market tomorrow. Im a little confused on what I should wear to the interview. I popped in today and saw that the employees have a casual dress code. They were wearing jeans, tennis shoes and solid colored tops, with company apron. I have read a number of times to never wear jeans to a job interview but this job is pretty casual. I dont want to overdress and I dont want to underdress. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
you should probably go for flats with neatly pleated skirt and your blouse should almost be to your elbow no cleavage

Do not wear jeans! no matter how casual the job is! I always played it safe with black pants and a white button down top

wear a button down white blouse and a knee length skirt or work pants

It doesn’t matter if the job will be a casual or semi- casual setting you should ALWAYS wear something professional. A pair of pin striped or solid black pants and a cute blouse with closed toed heels (no sandals) would be appropriate. Don’t over dress but certainly don’t under dress either. Always keep a clean and neat appearance and make sure your hair looks nice too!
You can never get a second chance to make a first impression…
Remember also, if you want to move up in the company they will remember how you came in. If you look like you are a professional person with skills you will be held to that standard and it helps when it comes to evaluations and promo time!

First off, don’t be afraid of over dressing. It shows that you are serious about getting the job, and you know how to present yourself in an important situation. Always dress in a way that compliments your figure and skin tone. ( ex. If you are pale, no yellows are light peaches or whites) Also don’t wear too much makeup. Go light and natural and not to dark. Something that would look nice might be a striped pant leg, dark jean jacket, black stilletos, and nothing too flashy ( these aren’t suggestions for an actual outfit, just article of clothing that might look nice paired with something else) One more thing, don’t over accesorize. A simple chain necklace and earings that don’t dangle very much can go a long way.
If you want to impress at the interview, you could also try greeting them with a nice, firm handshake and a dazzling smile. Always remember to appear comfortable even though you really may not be.

I agree with most everyone else; never wear jeans to a job interview. I used to be a hiring manager for a local retail store. It was a very casual position, but it was nice to see people come in not necessarily in fancy clothes, but nice outfits. I guess it shows drive and determination. To me it showed that yes the job is casual, but you are taking the interview and the job seriously. I think a good idea would be a pair of tan or black pants and a nice dress shirt – still kind of casual but nowhere along the lines of jeans.
