What to wear to an interview for personal training director
I am going for an interview today and was wondering what would be appropriate to wear as a female. We are meeting at the gym on a Saturday so I was thinking more casual but I’m getting mixed answers. I’m used to wearing what I would normally train in but since I wouldn’t be training I’m not sure what to wear?
Hi Michelle,
Thank you for your good question. I would say found out directly from the person who is going to interview you if possible. I say this because I personally have seen different reactions from different interviewers.
For example in one of my interview long time ago, one of the interviewer was unhappy just because I wore the attire that I would wear to work at the club (nice set of sneakers, work-out pants, polo shirt), and he didn’t like it and said I should have worn a suit w/ a tie [lol](literally). He was so pissed that didn’t show up in my second interview! In another occasion, the interviewer was unhappy that why I went to the interview w/ a suit and tie reasoning that it wasn’t going to be an office job. You see now! Look at it as a dating, find her/his taste first. 🙂
I hope it goes well,
Best of luck
