Are you supposed to dress up for a phone interview?

[Anonymous No.12800295]

>>12800273

Dark suit/tie is acceptable
Tuxedo is preferred

Yes, employers oftentimes send scouts to your home a day or two before the interview to plant cameras. This is to see your facial expressions and body language during the interview. They also take note of how much you dress up, so make sure you look your best.

My uncle is a job recruiter and he told me how the interviews at the Fortune 500 company he works at go. He also told me this was standard practice for most big companies. Of course you wouldn’t know because you are a fry cook at McDonald’s, brainlet.

WRONG

People don't behave like this in phone interviews. If your story is real, then I'm so sorry. You're going to be a physical manifestation of Fresco soon enough.

I just wish the hotel was paid for. I dont know anyone in Dallas and the flight there will wipe out the rest of my savings. Hope I can negotiate more than 20k this time

You should dress up for them because it gets you in the right headspace and gives you confidence.
