  The dress codes for various types of job differ depending on the work environment. But in a conservative business environment appearances do matter. According to image consultants, 55% of other people’s perception on you is based on how you look. So in any interview regardless of the type of job you are applying for always wear your best. It is better to overdressed than to be underdressed or to be undressed at all. Here are some basics from Kim Zoller’s Dressing for Success (jobsearch.about.com).
