Raging Bull, this is how you do it. Take notes.

Wow, you're getting sensitive. Welfare check? You went back and edited to toss that in? :D

Here's a friendly piece of advice. Wear a tie. If you think it's a casual environment, wear a blazer, otherwise wear a suit. And when you get there if you want to buddy up, and they're showing you around, you can take the tie off. But wear a tie. It's seriously one of those things that won't cost you, but may help you.

Can it be a Panthers tie?

And what about pants? Optional?

[Cyberjag]

Come on JR, if you had two equal candidates (Male), neither stood out, but one wore a tie to the interview and the other didn't, wouldn't that make an impression on you?

Maybe I'm just too white collar.

[TheRealDeal]

There is no doubt about it, you always dress up, never dress down.

Then when you get the job, dress for the job you want, not the job you have

[Oldschool Leroy]

I guess you dont have to, that welfare check treatin ya good?

Appearantly it starts at $24 an hour.

It is a broadcast engineer position.

Everyone there had on t-shirts and jeans....

LOL, Broadcast Engineer is my title too. I hope it is not my job you are getting. But then again, I deserve it since I read the huddle all day long.

Oh I agree 100%...I would show up with a tie on for an interview to dig ditches.

Just not pants.

[Proudiddy]

You wore a panthers polo, but felt it was okay because you COVERED it with a PULLOVER on a job interview? :lol:

You stay classy.

Double-layer fail.

For the most part, I do agree with dressing up to impress. It kind of lets them know that you mean business....but (there is always a but, right?). Sometimes dressing up too much can be a negative against you. It shouldn't but it can be. Just like a job looking at your resume and saying you are overqualified for a position, this can work the same way against saying you over did the dressing up..I don't know..just my 2 cents.

Did you pop your collar too? Did you roll up your sleeves so he could see that awesome tribal band tattoo? If this story is remotely true, you are a dip poo.

Would've been cooler to just get a neck tattoo on the way in.

It doesn't matter what the people there are wearing, they already have the job. At my company, the CEO wears jeans and a polo and the CFO wears shorts everyday. People have wetsuits hanging from their office doors, people wear sandals, jeans, t shirts, etc all day everyday, unless we have Uncle Sam visiting.

When I interviewed, I came in a suit even though I already knew what everyone at the company wore since I already knew some people in the company.
