OK then how much do you really want this job? If it's really worth pulling out all the stops for then a trip 'round the Mailbox could be in order. DKNY or Christian Lacroix will get you looking the business but could get you seriously into the red before you've even started your new job. Kensington Freak will get the lads looking smarter without breaking the bank and Oasis could do a similar trick for the girls.

DKNY 6-12 Wharfeside Street (0121) 600 7200 Smart, stylish, expensive. You'll look a million dollars. Which is only marginally more than it'll cost you.

Christian Lacroix 24-26 Wharfeside Street, The Mailbox (0121) 632 1292 A tad ostentatious perhaps, but it depends who you're trying to impress.

Kensington Freak 145 New Street (0121) 643 9448 A sensible option that will get you smartened up without completely bankrupting you.

Oasis 125 New Street (0121) 643 2770 Simple and smart ladies clothing at perfectly acceptable prices.

Last thing Remember to take a pen, notebook, copy of your CV and all sorts of other practical things. Oh, and turn up on time, or even early.
