Job Interview tomorrow....
Quote from bill93 on March 20, 2012, 2:21 amThe general trend of our society is to dress up less. Nowadays I see lots of people at weddings and funerals who are less dressy than the average worker was at the engineering office I worked in 30-40 years ago.

I vote for the tie, but not necessarily a suit!

Quote from gc on March 21, 2012, 2:40 pmI'm a little surprised at some of the responses. I agree with VH. I think it shows respect if you dress up, and doesn't (or shouldn't) hurt. It kind of shows that you are serious. Wearing a suit to an interview (to me) doesn't mean the applicant would wear a suit to the field. It almost means the opposite: that the applicant will dress "suitably" for the task at hand. (suitably- get it?)
(p.s. I don't really hire a person based on their clothes, I don't think. But I look at who I think would be best-skilled for the job at hand. Still dressing nice doesn't put any kind of subliminal negative effect on people I would hope and dressing sloppy has a better chance of a negative effect.)
there...just some more "prattling" as Tim would put it. 😛

LOL Joe, I have two suits that I wear to court, funerals etc (one at a time).. Cape Cod formal is a blue blazer (with gold anchor buttons) and tie when shorts and boat shoes without socks won't work.
