You want him to strip down to business casual mid interview lol?

I'd ask someone in hr or maybe a junior level contact if possible

LOL @IBA1 not that dramatic. I interviewed at a small HF once and they told me I could lose the jacket. I took it off and just draped it over my chair. In hindsight though a striptease might have gotten me the job

Full suit and tie. You can always dress down (take off the tie or jacket) but you can't add clothing if it's not there.

Considering a move in-house to NBC Universal in any litigation role (though I’d really go to wherever there is a need, whether litigation or business affairs generally). Coming from 4th year law firm litigation experience in a variety of areas but mostly data breach, e-discovery, breach of K. Do I apply with an employee referral or via LinkedIn recruiter that reached out? Alternatively, if anyone has experience applying/at NBCU, I’d so appreciate general advice :) TIA.

UPDATE (RE: SoCal Assistant Controller Interview)

So after two weeks of waiting (and giving up on the idea of getting the job really), the recruiter got back to me.

They said due to month-end and quarter-end close they were busy and couldn’t get back to me as quickly for a “good update”.

The recruiter said the CFO enjoyed our call, she, the CFO, will call me next week directly to “discuss some final things”.

Not sure if Im hired or not, but are there any questions about the job, comp (cont.)
