I think it depends on where it's for. But it looks cute for like a retail store :)

I think it's too casual but yes, it depends on what kind of job.

I think it's too casual as well but ya it depends on the job - I would suggest something more plain you are selling your skills not your outfit - maybe jeans and a button up shirt would be better.

Don't wear jeans or leggings for an interview. If it's more casual go for khaki pants and if more dressy go with some nice dress pants.

I was always told no matter where you're applying to that you should always dress professionally. It's worked for me.

It doesn't matter if you are interviewing for McDonald's or the Ritz, you dress professionally. Absolutely NO denim, even black. That includes shirts. No tight pants, no bare shoulders, no cleavage, no skirts above the knee. Close-toed low heels or flats. Avoid loud colors and prints. Makeup should be sedate (think "no makeup" makeup) and hair should be clean and worn in a conservative updo (a low bun, braided, etc). Make sure your fingernails are clean and if you wear polish that it is a neutral color and not chipped.

I have interviewed several people (and also had several interviews myself). If someone came in dressed like those photos above, their resume would go straight in the garbage. You dress professionally out of respect for the manager interviewing you--anything less than that is rude and makes a very poor impression.
