I''ve got a couple interviews for summer jobs coming up, and I''d like to hear people''s thoughts on wearing jewelry to interviews, especially engagement rings. I was reading somewhere that this is a no-no. What do PS-ers think? I think I''d feel a little sneaky taking it off for the interview, like trying to be something I''m not...granted, this is only a summer job, but I''d still like to make a good (and accurate) impression. And I''m sure I''ll be doing this again, so I might as well think about it now since law firms tend to be very conservative, especially at the interview stage.
My ring is small and simple, definitely not blingy. And I''m not sure I''d want to work at a firm who would discriminate (even unconsciously) on the basis of relationship status. But I also don''t want to appear unprofessional, and it''s been years since I last interviewed, and I definitely didn''t have this dilemma back then!!
Also, I''m having a shoe crisis -- my best suit is dark navy with tiny pinstripes, and I can''t find navy shoes anywhere. The only pair I found is lighter than the suit and I think it looks funny. Would wearing black pumps be a HUUUUGE faux pas? HELP!
