I went with Coat and Tie, you don't know the person interviewing you so never leave any loophole.

You do you (coat & tie, just collared shirt and tie, sweater over collared shirt, collared shirt, etc.), as long as you still dress professionally : )

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.

Need job advice:

I recently got an offer at a prestigious company making almost double what I make now (OTE). It is also a promotion on the job title which will help for long term career prospects.

The only downfall is I also have a final round interview with literally my dream job later this week.

The company who gave me the offer wants an answer before Thanksgiving. Do I take the good offer and run with it? Or do I roll the dice at the chance at my dream job?

Hello everyone.
I have only 1 offer with me with
15 days remaining of my notice
period.
Ideally I would have joined the
company, but the company is
EPAM.

I have been seeing many posts
here about layoffs.
Can anyone please help me
with a referral?
YOE: 6 years
Tech Stack: Python backend

Note:
Few friends here have helped me with a referral. Though not for all the interview is scheduled, I am very thankful to them.
