Summer Makeovers: The Hire Me! Edition
job-interview-makeup-hair-tips We don’t have to tell you that the job market majorly sucks right now. Bad news for everyone on the hunt for a new gig, but seriously crummy news for recent grads. When your resume isn’t jam-packed with experience, you need to do everything you can to show potential employers that you are career material.

Everything from your haircut to how you do (or don’t do) your makeup can hurt your chances in an interview.

With that in mind, we turned to the pros at the Eva Scrivo Salon in NYC to give three recent grads a workforce-worthy makeover. Check out their transformations, then study the expert beauty tips for making a great first impression — even seasoned interview pros could learn a thing or two from this savvy glam squad!

For more great tips from Eva, check out her book, Eva Scrivo on Beauty: The Tools, Techniques, and Insider Knowledge Every Woman Needs to Be Her Most Beautiful, Confident Self.
