Tie. No tie isn’t a negative per se but wearing one tells me you at least plan ahead enough to never be underdressed, which is a lot worse than being overdressed.
I interview people and honestly couldn’t care less other than finding suit + tie a little awkward / uncomfortable-looking when it’s obvious the interviewee isn’t used to the outfit. Wear what you’ll feel comfortable in and good luck :)

Choosing is beta behaviour! DOMINATE your virtual interview by first rejecting their zoom invite and sending them your teams invite instead, then you tell them what YOUR dress code is like as an alpha. Good luck!
This is why this person is a cofounder & CEO and we all aren't

Full body dinosaur costume.
With tie also. Make sure the interviewers know how hard it was to tie it with your tiny arms.

No tie. Didn't wear a tie in any interview. Landed offers at all consulting firms I applied to including an MBB
I'll add that the dress code for virtual interviews was said to be business casual. I did wear a sports coat though
I feel obligated to dress up a bit, then get interviewed by guys in hoodies (repeatedly). I’m female and I draw the line at a suit jacket for a zoom interview.
They should ask the recruiter who setup the interview

Whatever makes you feel most prepared to kick ass. (No tie)

I went full suit and tie - secured multiple offers

When they put me in virtual lobby I noticed I was the only one to even have a blazer/ suit jacket on. Unsure if it was necessary but I wanted to present myself 100%
No tie. Maybe a suite jacket for final round. Everyone dresses down for zoom interviews.

Nobody cares, it's all about your performance end of the day.
Sometimes I wear a tie and sometimes I don't. Got offers in both scenarios.
Tie w the first button slightly loosened. Trust me. Landed me offers
You better put on that tie.
