Default Re: need some advice

I agree with those that say you can "overdress" for an interview.

Dress one notch better than the employees do on a regular basis.

Employees wear jeans and a company uniform shirt, then wear kakis, and a nice polo. A suit and tie would be way overkill.



I have seen one company where the owner specifically told job seekers not to wear a suit, if they still did, then they couldn't follow directions. Whenever I open my airplane shop I intend to do the same. If durring the interview I see a puddle of oil and start to clean it up, you had better be helping, not worrying about your clothes.
