What to wear to Buckle interview


Question Posted Friday November 22 2013, 3:45 am

19/f

I have an interview tomorrow at Buckle. It's a clothing store.
On the phone she told me not to bring anything because they have all the information on my application and to dress like it's my first day of work.
The employees all wear clothes from that shop. Buckle is known for their jeans, so all the employees wear their jeans. For my last interviews I've worn a nice top with a black skirt and flats but I'm confused on what to wear to this interview.

I also don't own any of their jeans because they are too expensive for me.

So what should I wear?

Additional info, added Friday November 22 2013, 5:08 am:
I've googled it, but I keep getting different answers on what to wear. Some people to dress formal and others said to wear their clothes.

The thing what makes me really confused is that the manager told me to dress like it's my first day on the job and also said it was informal.
I don't want to overdress and I don't want to underdress.

Since you do not own any of their clothing you should dress as the manger said informal. In this instance informal would means business casual. A nice pair of slacks with either a blouse or polo shirt or a nice dress with blouse or polo shirt. If you chose a dress make sure it is not to short. For business a dress that might be acceptable length for social wear may be too short for business wear. The hem should be no higher then 3' above your knee. If you do not have any dresses of that length I would suggest wearing slacks. Hopefully you have a pair that are not too tight.

When speaking with the interviewer somewhere in the interview you will be asked why you want to work there. You can answer the question as to why you dressed as you have and the question they asked with this one answer. "I love your clothes and would love to wear them. Unfortunately I have not been able to budget for them as of yet. Working here will let allow me not only to wear your cloths but to help others make the right choices for them." Words to that effect should help you get the job.

Whatever you do, DO NOT SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THERE CLOTHES BING TO EXPENSIVE. You can say things like their cloths are up market or trending or trendy. Words like expensive or cheap when talking to retailers about their product in an interview will sink you on the spot.
