Tips fashion interview questions and answers

For an interview its always good to look professional, no matter the job or interview location.
Also, (I'm assuming here) you're going to be working in the actual casino right, not the pool.


You don't want your potential employer, looking around saying "Where is she, I only see the customers here!"
Or "I cant tell her apart from the customers" Or thinking you didn't put any effort.

How about wear a short sleeved blouse, & keep the colour of the clothing blacks, whites, browns creams, navys & greys.
Perhaps wear some coloured heels, to add a splash of colour, that way you will sort of blend, but you also want to stand out & give the employers something to remember you by "Wow, did you see her shoes!".
Even a colourful bag!
Wear small jewellery.
Wear natural looking make-up.
Usually for Casino jobs, wear red lipstick, thin eye-liner & a bit of blush for a glow.
Keep your nails groomed, no peeling off polish or bright crazy colours.

Its always good to remember small details like that, stand in front of the mirror & check, think of it as your going out with a cute boy you really want to impress, "are my eyebrows done?"

A great tip is to go & check out what the other staff wear & go by that, I've done this many times & employers LOVE this, they say "With the uniform, you wear, actually wear the type of clothing you are wearing now!" This makes them think, "Well she will fit right in!"
If they wear uniforms, then just wear the colours of their uniform.

And remember, whenever in doubt its always better to "over dress." It never fails to impress.

Some important tips:
Don't chew gum,
Don't throw gum out on the ground before entering,
Don't bring friends or boyfriends,
Don't smoke before entering,
Don't smell like smoke
Be aware that many employers place scouts outside their building to watch all this & others behaviours outside their buildings to see your true personality & characteristics.
Ask questions, so important!
If you cant think of something to ask that's specific about the job, do a question like "Can I just ask where did the name originate from its, so catchy" Or "I've noticed you do things this way, way instead of that way" But make sure its relevant, interesting & insightful; then they will think this of you & believe you will be interested & committed.

Don't say "umm" a lot.
If they ask weaknesses say something that can also be a positive like "I'm a neat freak"
Bring a copy of your resume, it makes you appear organised.
If you are forgetful when your nervous, take a notepad & pen, this way you can glance down at your notes to refresh your memory, & having something to hold on to stops you from fidgeting & flaying your arms about as you speak.
If your extremely nervous even tell them they will respect you for saying so "you'll have to excuse me I'm a bit nervous as I would love to work here, I love this casino it has such a great atmosphere to it."
But don't be nervous!
Its just an interview!
If you believe you, they believe you!

And good luck & all the best!!!

fashion retail interview questions

Below we have listed all the Accounts Interview Questions and answers. Feel free to comment on any Accounts Interview Questions or answer by the comment feature available on the page.

What qualifies you for a career in fashion over other candidates?

This is the time where you can discuss any achievements that you had while in other fashion related jobs as well as your achievements in school. Give examples of things you’ve learned in class that have translated or could translate to task that you will have at said job.

Where would you like your career in fashion to lead you?

Think long term goals. What is your 70 year life plan? -Maybe you haven’t thought that far ahead, and that’s okay too! This is your time to discuss your BIG  goals!! Make sure you link how this potential career can help you learn more in order to achieve these life goals.

What hobbies do you have that relate to the fashion industry?

Do you read magazines religiously? Can’t start your morning without a cup of coffee and a visit to all your favorite fashion blogs? Are you addicted to Pinterest, Instagram and other social media sites? ITS TOTALLY OKAY! In fact, I’m sure its encouraged! Mention that you are a total addict for these sites who produce imagery that inspire your fashion eye.

How do you describe your personal style?

This question can be a bit tricky. You have to do some serious soul searching. To help you answer this question, you must ask yourself; Why do you wear what you wear? When I go shopping, what encourages that purchase? Take time to deeply examine your shopping and morning dress ritual habits. Notice a pattern? Use that to help you answer this question. Every persons answer will be entirely unique, and that’s the whole point! Be your own person and make sure your interviewer knows you’ve made effort to begin figuring out who you are.

How do you handle conflict?

Step back, take a deep breath, reexamine the situation, and react. Best way to handle any sort of conflict. Make sure you impress your interviewer by highlighting your ability to diffuse situations before they can even lead to a conflict. Broader questions like these, are a great time to give direct examples from situations where you handled any sort of conflict well.

Now go get that job/internship!
