Interviews....
I’ve been with Accenture for 10 years and starting to get a few bites outside. Do you still wear suits to a interview or zoom call or is business casual ok? Years ago it was always suits but not sure about 2020. Not an executive role.
Thanks and have a great thirsty Thursday!

Do you normally wear a red tie specifically

Had a few zoom interviews post covid and I didn't bother with a suit and tie (I normally would for an in person interview). Did the zoom interviews in a shirt and a merino sweater (it's winter here) and I was still overdressed compared to my interviewers (one, from Accenture, was in a t-shirt).

I’ve been wearing a nice top/blouse as a female. All my interviewers (Male) have been wearing Tshirts and even have had baseball caps on.

I conducted interviews a few weeks ago and wore my usual zoom outfit - tshirt. Most interviewees were in business casual- guys were wearing shirts blazers no tie or just dress shirt. Women wore blazers or blouses.

I would wear a nice shirt or blouse with a jacket. Always better to be dressed for success! Besides if you are dressed nicer then you will feel better! Good luck

I agree with D3. Dress sharp with pressed shirt and blazer/jacket. Wouldn’t go as far as suit and tie. For that matter, you could be wearing shorts. I conducted a few interviews last week, I was in a (collared) polo shirt. One interviewee was wearing a suit and a tie (was trying too hard). The woman interviewee was wearing a blouse, which I thought was more appropriate for a zoom interview. For strategy roles
