I would go business professional if it’s an interview. So suit and tie would be my suggestion.

Well I got the job strictly based on how I looked naked. So worked out very well.

I would err on the side of a dress shirt or collared polo shirt. If you want to wear a jacket I would say it is optional. Most of the time when I am interviewing folks I am usually still in my PJs but I put on a 3/4 zip company fleece with logo. It looks very generic on the screen. I look less at what the candidate is wearing, rather I look at whether they are sitting in a disorganized mess. Make sure you are in a well lit area free from distractions behind you. Stage your background to look professional. If you can, set up in front of a window so you have lots of natural light on your face or invest in a ring light. Do a test run with a friend to adjust your microphone, camera and lighting. my major pet peeve is when I am interviewing someone and their camera is so low it looks like I am looking up their nose.

Partners or whomever can help me understand about billing and hours. To keep things simple, let’s say you only have one staff to work 1,700 billable hours a year on a $60k salary and you have only one job that and the rate charged to the client is $300/hour and an projected hours budget of 1,700 hours. So ideally you would have revenue of $510k. If the staff takes less time partners make less money and if they take more time partners make more money while the staff keeps the same salary?
