Wear a suit

My interview was via Zoom but I still wore a suit and tie.

They will never ding you for dressing too nice in an interview. I wore jacket and tie. However, it’s probably not needed if you don’t have. Dress to impress.

Rule of thumb is to dress up instead of dressing down when you're unsure.

I dressed up like I had a face to face interview. But just the top. I still wore my pijama pant 🤣 because no one would tell me to stand up 😂

I interviewed a person who wore a game of thrones t shirt and had visible tattoos. So you can’t go wrong with a suit

I wore a suit & tie (zoom interview). You can probably just wear a blazer/dress shirt. But can't hurt to be overdressed for an interview.

Is it in person? You can go wrong with a navy blue suit as a man.

Thank you! I’ll do that tn

Depends on the role you’re interviewing. I’ve done interviews for entry and experience candidates that were not in full suits, and I didn’t care. I work in jeans and a sweatshirt most days, maybe a quarter zip or polo for client meetings depending on the client and level.

Yes, suit & tie is still the standard. Full stop.

You will see many threads on these bowls where people will say it’s too stuffy, casual is fine, “just be yourself!”, etc. 🤮

Indeed, trends are changing, but at the end of the day, if it comes down to this:
Suppose you and another perfectly qualified candidate answer all the right questions, impress everyone, and are essentially tied. However, you are impeccably dressed, and the other guy is wearing a flannel shirt. It will likely put you over the top.

A HR question I really want to understand. ISRS HR quoted a podcast "The not so great resignation" saying 70% regret leaving and many want to go back to old employer. If this really the case the employee likely left due to higher pay at the new company. If they want to boomerang back they will likely come back at even a higher rate than they left the new company for. So getting double raise when they boomeranged. Isn't it unbeneficial, why not just give employee a 7% raise in the first place?
