Just wear business professional. Even if it’s remote, better to be over dressed.

A suit&tie

I think normal interview wear today is business casual (which means suit, white or blue dress shirt, no tie for men - not an expert on women)

like

Thoughts on nice sweater instead of suit coat (cuz ain't nobody wearing suit trousers these days).

Had one a few months ago and wore a jacket w no tie. No issues

Ill put an & on my forehead and say “I’m Harry&”

I'd overlook one math error for that desperate attempt at humor.

One more desperate joke and I might even overlook your non-MECE logic.

Chaps

Leather sleeves

Wear a coat and tie.

Wear ampersand cuff links, the partners will be super confused but impressed

Dress like Prince

A red sweater with an "&" on it

A tiara

Panties

Whatever you decide, do make sure you wear pants 🙄😂😱

Is it irrational for me to get an “ick” for this?

I went on a “date” recently. I paid for the tab as they were going to the bathroom. As we were leaving they said “thanks for lunch” — I was hoping they’d at least ask to Venmo me half as a kind gesture. Following lunch we grabbed dessert. I was hoping they’d offer to cover dessert since I covered lunch but it didn’t happen.

I am fine w/ paying but I was hoping the gesture would at least be presented… am I crazy?

Hi Guys,

After my HR round today, Hr called up and said that will move forward with the offer but approvals with higher management might take some time as there is a hiring freeze.
Do you think offer will be released? And how much time these approvals take ?

She mentioned at the end that they are definitely going to offer as all feedbacks are positive.
But it all depends on the approvals.
