I have an interview, company has bussiness casual dress code.What should I wear?

Should I wear a suit with a dress shirt (leather shoes, leather belt, WITHOUT a tie)?





Does it matter if the suit is polyester?





If it is a very hot day (30 degrees Celsius) should I just wear all the above minus the jacket? Would it look too bad (if I wear just trousers and a shirt)? Is this applicable for business casual dress code?





Thanks

Wear something elegant, smart and something that fits you right. Wear some colores!!! Even if they have a casual dress code, they might like someone who has good taste, at least in clothes.





Ditch the jacket. And DON'T wear a tie!!!
Reply:At least in Europe, "business causal" normally includes a jacket and a tie, especially at a job interview, where you always want to be a notch more formal and "proper" than the company's normal dress code.





The collared shirt, however, does not have to be white (which is the hallmark of the "formal" style), but it still has to be in a light colour or a classic pattern (such as light blue, stripes, etc.).





You can always put on your jacket upon entering the (air conditioned) building!





It does not matter if the suit is in polyester: A dress code is not a way to show off wealth by wearing expensive materials. However, a suit that is too "shiny" is not particularly attractive - but by no means incorrect. Looking good and being formally correct are not always the same thing.





If I were you, I would put on my jacket only upon entering the (air-conditioned) building!





Also, remember to coordinate your belt with your shoes (brown with brown, black with black): Such small details really make a difference!

If you wear suit and tie you won't be 'marked down' for being overdressed.





If you dress down it might count against you. Even if the company's view is smart-casual is okay, your interviewer is a person too, and their view may be that if you can't even be bothered to make an effort for your interview, you're probably not someone they want to be depending on to do your job well.
Reply:If you are interviewing you should always dress one notch above traditional prodical. I would wear a dress slack, jacket, shirt, and tie. Since it is bussiness casual I would not wear a suit. I would wear a light colored dress shirt. I would wear a leather belt and a nice shoe. I always look at a persons shoes when I interview them. If their shoes aren't polished that says something about what type of work they would produce...paying attention to detail. I don't care if they are expensive shoes just if they are kept up.
Reply:I think even though the company has this dress code you should still wear a suit to the interview. They will not be examining the label of the suit so as long as it is clean and smart looking that is fine. Many people at work don't spend a lot of money on a suit as sitting at a desk all day ruins them anyway.





If it is a hot day come into the interview room in the jacket and ask if you can remove it before you sit down. It would be in order to wear a short sleeved shirt and tie (not a looney tunes tie). Take the lift/elevator so you look cool. Don't do anything heroic like running up 4 flights of stairs. Try and remain cool.





You only get one chance to give a good first impression.





Good luck
Reply:Even if the dress code is "business casual", I would still go in a suit and tie. You're going for an interview - you should always be dressed formally. You can always remove your jacket/loosen your tie if it's very warm, but just for the purpose of an interview, make it look like you have made an effort, and that you CAN dress smartly.
Reply:Don't over dress.


If you are going to go without a tie (I believe that this is acceptable in US) then wear a shirt that doesn't need a tie. (Some shirts just scream 'tie' at you).


Don't wear a dress shirt. (not in the English sense of the word), totally inappropriate.


Smart minus the jacket is fine so long as you don't wear suit trousers - again these demand a jacket just so that they look right. Always think suit trousers look odd by themselves.





Avoid 'trendy' suits like the plague. Go for a very understaded classic look.





If in doubt ask at you local outfitters for advice. They'll pick something to suit your frame.
Reply:I would go all out for an interview, tie, jacket etc. The business casual dress code is probably a guideline for people working there already. You aren't, so you need to dress to impress, you don't get another chance to make a first impression. Good luck. :o)
Reply:If "business casual" is anything like what i think it should be, i'd say a smart shirt, trousers and shoes - im 50-50 on the tie - if i was interviewing you, and you were good enough for the job, it wouldnt matter to me! Good luck!!
Reply:No i think that sounds fine. Why dont you take a tie in your pocket just in case everyone else has one on, therefore you can slip it on when you notice.





good luck with your job.
Reply:Casual dress code means in my experience you can leave the jacket and tie at home. A nice collared shirt with kakis or trousers to me would be business casual and appropriate for an interview.
Reply:dress pants nice shirt and a tie
Reply:um anything wroks there not gona hire u based off ur clothes well good luck and i hope u do good! :)
