I have an interview on Friday for a senior administrative assistant position. It's my first "big kid" job. I really want it. I look younger than my real age (late 20s.) How do I look my age and maturity and competence?
Options:
- grey self-pinstripe skirt suit, 3/4 sleeves, self-belt with rosette or black ribbon unless I don't belt it
- black pinstripe skirt suit, long sleeves, small kick pleat/ruffle in the back
- black pinstripe pant suit, same jacket as above
Shoes:
- black shiny (non-shiny ones died) pumps
- black heeled ankle boots
- black wedges (need to wear socks with these)
- black mary-janes

school question: I am finally finishing my BA in Humanities after starting as a science major in 2005. It will require one more transfer, to the DE/online branch of my state's university system but it is the best option for me. What's a good way to talk about still being in school and the journey I've been on to finish this stupid degree?
Also, my five year plan is finish a post-bacc and go to med school. Sh!t.
Re: help me pick a suit/school question
Black pinstripe pantsuit. The 3/4 sleeve and the kick pleat scream "young" to me
Black patent pumps

I agree, being the same age group I understand not wanting to come across "too young' and I think that look will please anyone who you might interview for.
Figured I'd update...
Well, the job posting/recruiter "misspoke". It's only calendar-keeping, basically. I'm over-qualified.
Oh well.
I have a crap-ton of applications in at my current institution (I'm temping) so hopefully I'll get a call for one of them, and I have a couple of other applications in at other places.
I did look fabulous.
