In the post, she wrote: “I wore my husband’s suit and got the job! I’m back! I listened to all of your lovely opinions, and went with my husband’s suit for the interview! I got compliments from the interviewers on my outfit, which was cool. So here’s to the new trend of wearing your husband’s suit!”

“I would have guessed a different option you shared was the one that was your husband’s! Congrats on the new job! I hope it’s as great of a fit for you as the outfit is!”
A third also chimed in with: “I might need to bust out my husband’s suit and see how it looks! I have an interview next week.”

Usuallly, when people attend an interview they have all sorts of worries. From wanting to say the right thing, to how to present themselves to offering just the right amount of knowledge about a particular subject.
The worries are endless, and our nerves can take over, but maybe focusing on our fashion choices could help along the way. After all, nothing makes us feel more confident than a seriously good outfit.
Another person added: “Yes!!!! You looked perfect! I hated all the other people advice saying to not wear it. I thought it was 10/10 perfect, and not the traditional boring out of style outfits people wear.”
One more shared a personal success story, writing: “I just wore my husband’s clothes to an interview and also got offered a job! This is a hack no one knew existed!”
