"As loads of currently-unemployed women can tell you, this is one of the most competitive job markets in recent history--though that doesn&amp;#x27;t mean it&amp;#x27;s time to try and make yourself stand out sartorially on a job interview. Check out the two biggest mistakes ladies make when meeting potential employers, after the jump. Today&amp;#x27;s Daily Mail shares some recent research that says the best way to blow an interview is by showing too much cleavage. It may seems like an absolute &amp;quot;duh!&amp;quot; revelation, but apparently enough women are still doing it that they&amp;#x27;re ruining their own chances before they&amp;#x27;ve even had a chance to answer the first question. And the second most offensive wardrobe snafu, according to the survey, is wearing a black bra under a white blouse. Again, it may come from the department of absolutely obvious, but when you&amp;#x27;re hitting the interview circuit, stick with flesh-colored undergarments and if you have to ask yourself, &amp;quot;Is this too much cleavage?&amp;quot; well then, it is.

Among the other offenses? &amp;quot;Job seekers were marked down for wearing bright and trendy colors, with seven out of ten employers saying they do not appreciate people trying to be fashionable.&amp;quot; It may seem boring, but there&amp;#x27;s really just one tried-and-true formula that will always work: &amp;quot;An overwhelming 81 percent of employers said wearing a suit to interview suggests you are organized and efficient.&amp;quot; So dolls, unless you&amp;#x27;re interviewing for a position at the local lingerie boutique, keep your decolletage in check and save your black-bra-white-top combo for weekend excursions only!
