Cufflinks for Interview
I was wondering if cufflinks (plain black and silver) would be acceptable for internship interviews. I'm a sophomore in college and have a few interviews lined up with regional banks in the South but don't want to come across as a pretentious intern. I obviously wouldn't wear them everyday if I got an internship, but for interviews, do you think this shows confidence, etc?
I personally think its fine. Especially if its with a white or a blue shirt. But I wouldn't recommend doing it, because in finance you have a lot of people who would view that as pretentious or what not. So just take safe route and dress basic.
Having said that, when you interview for a job with 5+ year experience, then no one will care.
A golden advice that I read on somewhere on WSO - "Rule of thumb is that if you have to ask if wearing something is a good idea or not, no, it probably isn't."
WSO should put this as a warning for users making a new post in the fashion advice section.
Take this with a grain of salt:
As far as I have been told by bankers its generally a known principle that you need to "earn" the right to wear cufflinks such as complete XX amount of transactions.
Sounds strange but I've always stayed on the safe side and worn regular cuffs, albeit its up to you bro
