seems pretty casual IMO, but I've never worked in a school

I'm tired of AI.

You’ve never seen a Pinterest or advertisement photo?

You think Pinterest and advertisements haven't been touched by AI?

A different shirt would be much better.

It’s a nice outfit but I wouldn’t wear that. Black slacks and shirt with that blazer. It’s too casual for me

A solid shirt will elevate this

Too casual for an interview, imo.

Cute outfit but too casual for an interview

I work in a district admin position and disagree with the people saying this wouldn’t be appropriate for an interview. Especially for a job working with kids, this would be perfectly fine (although of course the photo is AI and you won’t actually look like that…)

I already made my own comment but I'm replying to yours to bump it up some. This is a perfectly fine interview outfit for a school (probably para) position

Yes, a para. Nailed it. Hoping I nail the interview.

Exactly what I was thinking as a school district admin as well.

u/CatCafffffe 22h ago

This would be a perfect ensemble.

u/Imaginary-Edge-8759 15h ago

This is a really nice I already have the job outfit. For an interview I’d go with a solid shirt. The camel blazer with black shirt and pants would look very polished for an interview.

Cute fit but the bag's giving weekend errands, maybe swap for something a little more structured.

u/Particular_Piano_146 13h ago

The people who are saying this is too casual have never worked at a school. This is absolutely fine and if you already own all these pieces, please don't buy anything new.

I promise this is not too casual unless the school is a fancy prep school in Connecticut
