    A turtle neck, a burlap sack over the turtle neck, then a parka and snow pants to complete the ensemble. :)

    That answer your question? ;)

    Oh, wait, do you mean what would I wear if I wanted the job and Chuff was interviewing?

    No brainer baby, I'd go sans raimant. ;)

    If it is just an application they usually just want the name and phone number.
    I haven't interviewed for anything yet but here's some stuff people always say to do:
    *speak with confidence
    *look directly at the person. Don't look in another direction then back at the person and then in another direction again.
    *don't say "um..." or "uh..." too much or at all when you are thinking of what to say.
    * don't play with your hair, touch your face, scratch yourself, etc..
    *practice with someone or with a mirror (lol)
    You probably wouldn't do any of the weird things listed because you aren't a teenager like me, but just remember! Good luck alty! :)

    Thanks XOXO.

    They already have my resume, that's why I got the interview.

    I called and asked what type of references they're looking for, they said just names and numbers, so no problem. :)

    Thanks for the tips. :)

    Give yourself a pep talk.Tell yourself you are capable of doing this job,you are reliable and you will be an asset to the company.
    Know that and you will show that.

    Fake your confidence until it becomes real.It works!
    You will be fine,just don't let them know how overqualified you are.
    I have not been hired for that reason before and I was shocked when they told me that.I had never heard of such a thing.
    I also don't think you need to buy a suit.A skirt and a blouse will be fine.
    You will do good!Your strong and smart and determined,all great assets!
