2nd Interview Question?
I have a second interview tomorrow for a position I really, really want.
Question: Can I wear the same suit I wore to the first interview, but with a different shirt and accessories?
This interview is with different people than whom I interviewed with the first go around. There is a slight chance I will see the first interviewer.
I just hate the rest of my suits, they are extremely outdated, as I never have a need for suits.

I would think as long as you wear a different shirt you'd be fine.
Good luck tomorrow!!

Re: 2nd Interview Question?
it is so funny that you posted this b/c I also struggled with this for my 2nd interview.
I ended wearing up the same suit with a different color blouse and it was fine. no one remembers.
and I got the job, so I guess it really didn't matter. 
I did however wear a different suit for my 3rd interview.

I'm not really sure why I am worrying about this! I should just be worried about the questions they'll ask and the answers I'll give, right?
If I feel like I am going to be asked back for a third, I will plan for a new suit!

def get a new suit if you're called back for a 3rd interview.
and yes, focus more on the Q's and your responses than your outfit.
GOOD LUCK!!!

Re: 2nd Interview Question?
I've been on both sides, as the interviewer and the interviewee...I rarely remember what a candidate wore the first time I met them...I think you should be fine if you changed it up a bit - good luck!!

Re: 2nd Interview Question?
i think you can. i'm sure they've interviewed other candidates and my bet is when you interviewed, they were looking to see if you were dressed appropriately (suit) not what KIND of suit you were wearing. I also think it's important to go into an interview in something that you feel comfortable and confident in.

Thanks! It went well. I don't know, for both these interviews (meeting 4 people total) they were pretty conversational, not many hard hitting questions. I guess because I've worked in the industry for a while, I know what's what.
I hope I get an offer, I'm really interested in the position.
