  1. Thank you. I just want to add something: Color Psychologists have compiled a report for best colors to wear for an interview, they believe the color blue is soothing and indicates that you are trustworthy. It just so happens to be the highest percentage of the population’s favorite color. Grey and black are also good colors to wear as both are neutral and give an element of formality and professionalism. These colors are perfect for an interview within a corporate environment. When aiming to land a job in a younger and more dynamic business, wearing brown or green will give off a feeling of creativity
