Job Interview: I need a suit
Discussion
Right then
I have an interview with the largest construction firm in the UK next month and I need a new suit.
Personally I feel that black suits should only be worn at funerals or dinner parties so I was going to go with a light/medium grey affair.
Thoughts?
Shirt colour of choice would be white with a red 'slim' tie and of course a black pair of shoes.
The job is office/site based with lots of client liasing.
Am I mad?

Balfour Beatty, Carillion or Laing's? I have an interview with the largest construction firm in the UK next month
I work in construction, love the industry
Suit wise, as above really, a dark suit, keep it simple and fairly plain. You don't want to end up looking like a sales rep.
I too, love the industry. Aim to work abroad one day in the not too distant future.
Darker suit it is then. I may have to reconsider the tie, black or blue plain being more sensible options.
Still, keep the opinions coming.
I intended to update this thread once I got the job but now is as good a time as any I guess.
I went for a mid grey suit, lovely white shirt and a grey tie. I actually thought the tie was black in the shop but once home I realised it wasn't.
Interview went well and I shall hear back in another week or so.
Happy Days.

I was unsuccesful for this position, competition was strong though I feel I performed well.
But who cares!
I've just listened to a voicemail from another firm offering an even better position!
Yippe Kay Yay!
Thanks for the advice guys.
