I got invited for interview for internal job based in an office. Now I am trying to work out what to wear on the day.
My guess is that I should go for normal interview smart appearance and not uniform as this is quite a big jump in grades and proper smart clothes could show that I really want it (which is true) and I don't treat this one as just one of the many interviews, ie. for lower graded posts (which is also true). If I'm right, better to go for full suit or wearing shirt+tie but no jacket is smart enough?
It all might sound like a silly question but firstly I don't want to commit faux pas (not due to ignorance, but cultural differences) and secondly it's always better to ask
If it helps, when I visited the office some of the staff there were wearing smarter clothes, but some just polo+jeans and the application included assessment (quite tough aptitude tests, which I think best show suitability and skills for the job) and I think I did OK/good, however letters inviting for interview were sent before the assessment.
Any advice?
