How to Select a Handbag for a Job Interview



A functional and attactive handbag is a smart interview accessory. It's the most professional way to carry your resume, calling card and personal effects.







Things You'll Need:





Handbags



Women's Suits









Step
1



Choose a bag that has enough room to fit an unfolded copy of your resume.




Step
2



Focus on functional bags: look for inside pockets, dividers, pen holders, cell phone compartments and key clasps.




Step
3



Consider bags with zippers, velcro and flaps which will help contain the contents of your bag, should it get jostled or tip over during the interview.




Step
4



Match the color of your bag to your interview attire. Black and navy compliment dark tones, while tan and brown accent lighter suits. Make sure your bag matches your shoes.




Step
5



Think microfiber and leather, as canvas bags may be too casual for a formal interview.




Step
6



Buy to last. Choose something you can use once you've landed the job.







Tips & Warnings









If this is your first job out of college, retire your backpack and invest in a high-quality handbag. This will emphasize your departure from being a student and underscore your new role as a professional.
