Vimeo's chief financial officer, Munson advises job seekers to prioritize comfort over formality when dressing for interviews, especially in the age of virtual meetings. While it's important to show respect for the role, she emphasizes that feeling confident and authentic is more valuable than adhering strictly to traditional dress codes.
While it remains prudent to"dress for the role you want," Munson, Vimeo's chief financial officer, tells CNBC Make It, that doesn't necessarily mean you need to wear your most formal attire.Despite conventional wisdom around interview garb, you might be best served in less buttoned-up clothing that's more comfortable, especially in the age of regular virtual interviews, she advises.
Munson's guidance calls for a more relaxed approach to dress — but still within reason. She notes that you should always"show respect for the role" in your outfit, even if you meet your interviewer remotely via Zoom. It's best practice in an interview to dress at the same level of formality as others at the company, or one notch more, recruiter Farah Sharghi told Make It last year.
