So I have an interview at a County Correctional Facility next week, but I currently have a sprained ankle, so my question is... would it be ok if I wore sneakers to the interview? I don't really have anthing else besides high heals, and they will def kill my ankle if I wore that nect week, any suggestions on the appropriate shoes I can wear?

Wear a pants suit and get some flats from Walmart..$10.00. Ace wrap before the interview and there ya go. No tennis shoes, very unprofessional, you dont want to do anything to put yourself in the negative light. Good luck!

Are you on crutches? If so, I think it would be appropriate to wear what is necessary, given that the crutches will fully convey your impairment.

And of course, you'll get kudos for going the extra mile to make it to the interview!

I think a simple black pair of flats would be a great idea also.

Just explain to them that you sprained your ankle. It shows you're tough and will get to work reliably.
