scrubs: yes or no for an interview?

[RNJess10]

I'm an 18 year old CNA - never been employed as a CNA before - and I wasn't sure if I should dress business-like or if scrubs were acceptable for an interview? My mom said she didn't think so, but she isn't affiliated with the medical field. The scrubs are simply blue, nothing flashy. I have white shoes to wear with them. Is that acceptable?

I did wear scrubs to an interview once. It was only because I was too fat to fit into anything else comfortably and all I wore for years is scrubs. Well the DON that was interviewing me was obsessed with it, she kept asking me why I was wearing scrubs. Needless to say, I did not get the job.
