Sometimes it is not only what you say but how you say it. Style often plays just as an important role as substance. Yet, job seekers often do a poor job of assessing how they come across to others.

I have interviewed hundreds if not thousands of people. Most come to the interview dressed up a bit better than their normal hanging-out-at-home clothes. Many even come dressed in business attire. Even though most make at least some effort to look presentable, it is amazing how many do not make their mind presentable.
