There was a story here a while ago, about a guy who got rejected at an interview because he went dressed in a suit and tie, and was deemed "not a good culture fit".
- rjbwork 12y agoWe actually had to let go the only person to have come to our interview in a suit and tie that we actually hired...there is not a good track record.
- daxelrod 12y agoWhere is your company, and what industry is it in? I was taught (and coached) that no matter what kind of job you're interviewing for, you should show up in a suit and tie. Not because you ever expect to wear that while working, but because it is considered a show of respect to the interviewers.
- BSousa 12y agoThere is also someone either at YC or some other accelerator/vc that recently wrote in their blog that as soon as you go to an interview with a suit he will automatically pass as he doesn't believe you can be a techie. Having a hard time finding the post, but it was posted here on HN.
