To scrub or not to scrub...?

[NursePatty77]

I have an interview in the coming weeks. I was told that it is OK to wear scrubs due to shadowing the same day.

I am conflicted on whether or not to wear scrubs or business attire.

What would you wear?

My interview was a shadow followed by an interview. I wore scrubs for the entire thing. There was not time nor opportunity to change. Plus the NM wore her scrubs for the interview. Her office was right on the unit.

I had a nurse recruiter complain recently about people showing up to interview/shadow in scrubs, so I would personally wear business casual - skirt with a jacket that can easily be removed, low shoes.
