Author: You may love wearing the latest perfume or cologne, but doing so will likely hurt your chances of getting through the interview process. While there is always a chance that an interviewer will love your scent, these smells are a turn-off for many people.
Sadly, first impressions are often the ones that decisions are based on. Don’t allow your fragrance spoil an otherwise great first impression.

I really can attest to this tip. As a college recruiter many years ago, I literally had to open the interview room door to get some fresh air in a small space that was overcome by someone’s perfume. Great tip for students trying making a positive first impression.
