UBS Dress Code - 43 page code

In a Big Brother-style, 43 page dress code for its bank employees, UBS has a recommendation for everything from the length of employees’ socks (at least knee high, to avoid embarrassing peeks of skin from the trouser leg) to what they eat (no garlic).

Here are some taken out:

“The nicky [kerchief] should always be folded and tied with a bow oriented, not below, but as far as possible, top left. Style “boy scout” (nicky bellows on the neck) be rejected in all cases”

“Never wear shoes that are too small for you: There’s nothing worse than a twisted smile.”

“In interviews with customers or other third parties, it is essential you remove your glasses so that eye contact can established. Sunglasses should not be worn on the head.”

"The ideal time to wear perfume is directly after taking a hot shower when your pores are still open."

"You will extend the life of your stockings and your tights if your toe nails are well-trimmed and filed."

 "Each time you remove your suit, untie your tie and hang or wrap it. Give your tie

at least one rest day before reuse so that the fabric and lining to rest."

Full 43 pages are below. I think its in Spanish or something

Sans chaussures adaptées et de qualité, même le plus beau tailleur ne donne aucun style. Seules des chaussures adéquates complèteront avantageusement un Dresscode correctement respecté, confèreront style et élégance et contribueront positivement à l’impression générale. Si votre tenue est de couleur anthracite foncé, noir ou bleu foncé, des chaussures noires fermées en cuir brillant de style classique ou tendance conviendront parfaitement. La hauteur du talon ne doit pas dépasser 7 cm; le

I apologize that my sarcasm did not register with you. This is WSO bro of course I knew it wasn't Spanish. Making an account on this site is more difficult than recognizing the obvious difference between Spanish and French.

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.
