If I were a man, I would. Dress for the job you want, you can tone it down after the offer comes in

Call front desk and ask dress code. Anything above casual, wear a tie. Always overdress for an interview unless told otherwise.

I definitely would wear a tie.

For interviews I never wore jacket. Just formal worked. Unless you are applying for CXOs.

I meant formal shirt, pant and shoes.

Go for white-tie (and white shoes).

Tuxedoes are far too casual.

Anything without a tail cannot be taken seriously.

I've done so well in this new role within the company that they are hiring another person to assist with what I do. I've voiced to my boss that I'd like to manage this department and they indicated that this is the thought for the future. Now they are asking me to train this person while I have my plate full. Is it wrong for me to expect either a promotion or to be paid to train this person?
