Is a shirt like this under a blazer Ok? or is that not appropriate for an optometry interview??

I just don't want to wear a button up collard shirt under the blazer.

And by the way, this is not me.. just something random I came across on google.. lol..

Your link does not work. But seriously....don't worry about it. Just dress professionally. You're a smart person. Surely you've dressed up before.

I think the shirt is probably fine. I have an aunt who is a partner in an accounting firm (that means she is really high up), and she knows all about suits and interviews so she educated me a bit and helped me pick out a suit. The collard shirt is not always necessary, and mine does not have one either. You just usually want to have something on the front of the shirt that will show over the buttons of the blazer, so I think it can be a collar or frill or something. And as for if you should button the blazer, I don't think that will impact whether or not you are accepted, but my aunt said that usually you do wear it buttoned if you are standing, but that sometimes when you are sitting (i.e. right when you sit down in the interview) it is acceptable to unbutton it. But like others said, if you just dress formally, you will probably be fine 🙂
 
I fixed the link now. but you guys are right i should focus more on studying for my coming OAT then what i'll wear.
