My husband has a job interview tomorrow...What should he do with his long hair?

His hair isn't too horribly long...about two inches below his collar. It's not quite long enough to tie so we're stuck with leaving it down...Will it matter with the way today's job market's are? We don't know what the company will be like so we don't know how formal it will be...Thanks...

i'm a long-hair hippy myself. i also work for a pharmaceutical company as a financial analyst and am almost done with an MBA. i refuse to work for any company that can't accept a good employee who has long hair. i figure that if a boss would discriminate based on hair length, then she/he is not worth my time.

so, give it a good wash and a good combing, just like i do every day.... put on a nice suit and tie (or whatever is appropriate) and good luck.

peace.

What industry? That matters a great deal.

I mean I held a management position in the surf industry and my Looong hair was never an issue.

Restaurant? Sales? Maybe it's time to go off the collar.

Better to get it trimmed

as long as it appears clean and somewhat stylish ... and not appear like he's just been too lazy to get a haircut, then he should be fine.

Nothing, except make sure that it's neatly brushed.

Put Hair gel and pull it backwards for a sleek clean look..................

Firstly can make a hair cut to suit his looks. If there is any reservations about this then better to dress his hair in order to make him presentable, because in job interview they also notice how better you have managed yourself.

hide inside his head, yahoo!!!

It depends what the company is and its standards. If it is a formal company, he might want to have it cut. If it is an informal company, he mightn't have a problem. If you have contacts in the company, I would check with them.

If his hair is that long he needs to cut it either way, and don't even think about letting it get long enough to tie it... Today's companies want a clean and polished look, while it is descrimination not to give a job based on appearance, it happens. Tell him to get a haircut quick, dress nice and make sure to look everyone in the eye.

Depends on the position. IT, then no. But most likely your hubbie is not a techie, so get him a conservative haircut and pronto! Yes it does matter, unless he's applying for a janitor!

My respects to janitors/custodians-

Buy or check out a book on interviewing, but better yet, GOOGLE it!!

You asked the question because you think it should be cut...

If you were the owner what would you think?

just gell it or use hairspray and keep it out of the eyes it makes people not trust you as much.

Well, you don't see a lot of executives wearing mops.

I agree with other writers who say it depends on the industry. My significant other has long hair and is a business owner. I am a therapist but I have a couple of tats and I like my tie dye and my "updated hippie" style. Some people approve and other's are judgemental. I think if he is applying for a job that would dissaprove, he will be rather uncomfortable even if he gets the job. Tell him to be himself and if it doesn't work out then look for a company that is more like-minded and laid back.

I've learned the hard way that he should definately cut it. Companies often think that if your hair isn't "corporate" you won't be a team player. Not all companies are like that but it's not worth the risk.

Being yourself is very important. My brother was told by Ford Motor Co. that he had to shave his mustache to get hired. He was reallly upset, but, he did it and after a short time he grew it back and drove his Corvette to work lol.

It depends grately on what kind of work but, I am a retired CEO of a large Trucking Company and my gut says get it cut but not real short. If it were way down his back or ever a little longer he could put it back and they really cant say much. Good Luck.

By the way what state are you in??

My husband has a job interview tomorrow...What should he do with his long hair?

Appearance ALWAYS matters!!

It is true. You only have ONE chance to make a good first impression!

First, do your homework! BEFORE the interview find out as much as you can about the place you are applying to! Look at their employees and you will get a sense of their dress code.

Yes, some jobs even invite longer hair but most want you to appear well groomed (as in a conservative look). IF he is serious about getting the job then get in line with what the company is looking for. He can always grow it back after he is established in the new job.

Just my .02 cents.

Personal experience - Hair about 4 inches below collar. Interviewed for management position 6 months ago. Have come to know since having been on the job for 5 months that I had the best interview ever. Negotiated decent 6 figure salary. All in all hair length was a non issue. and I carry a full beard as well :)

My boyfriend's hair is to the middle of his back. He just ties it back in a low ponytail and no job has ever given him problems.
