A good all-purpose guideline is to look professional and responsible. People should make their own choices about what to wear as long as it reflects a positive image of the employer.
If you’ve been selected for an interview, then you’ve already met the initial challenge of having proven your credentials as a promising candidate for a position. In order to secure a desired position, applicants should always project an outward appearance that builds both their own self-confidence and a level of confidence in those they serve. The next few steps in the employment process should be just as important for applicants to accomplish as the first one.
Looking the part is always a step in the right direction so, with that in mind, here is a list of acceptable and unacceptable characteristics for applicants and employees to pay attention to at all times. Acceptable characteristics include, but are not limited to, a neat and tidy appearance, good personal hygiene and grooming, pressed and unwrinkled clothing, minimal fragrance amounts; jewelry or other accessories in moderation. On the other hand, unacceptable characteristics would include dangling jewelry, distracting and/or revealing clothing and visible body piercings/tattoos.

Good Post, Vette.
Would the same guidelines apply if a candidate was just say - dropping in to complete an on-line application?
Thank you!
Yes, I would use the same guidelines when dropping in to complete an online application.
How does this relate to the ideas in 5 Strategies for Improving Employee Satisfaction in Healthcare ? Is dress code as important as employee satisfaction? What do you think?
