Job interview

[Jock Scot]

Do you know you really have got me thinking here and on balance do not under any circumstances wear the kilt! Now that has got your attention. And I mean it! Why?

Well for many years I ran my very own business in Scotland and England and even though I say it myself I was pretty good at it. I cannot remember once the kilt being worn by me ,or anyone else, at important meetings. If I was going to meet THEM I never ever wore the kilt, frankly its a distraction. Sometimes latterly, IF they were coming to meet me I would sometimes wear the kilt if the meeting was at home in my Scottish office and if the meeting was not that important.Business is primarily about making money, and not about personal choices of job applicants and first impressions count, big style. If I were interviewing you and you were wearing the kilt I could not take you seriously, no matter how good you may be. If on the other hand, you got the job wearing a suit AND THEN you and your kilt could be useful to the greater cause(MINE) then alright I would consider it.

This is an important meeting, particularly for you, do not even consider wearing the kilt, but you should let it be known that you are happy to wear the kilt properly, if the occasion should arrise.
