Interview Fashion (?)

What to wear (and) What not to wear. Is there ever really a question?
Be conservative. If you have to ask if it’s okay to wear something, it’s not okay to wear it.
A friend of mine who graduated in the late 90s, told me that in his senior seminar class he was instructed to always wear a suit and tie to an interview, except if it was in California. Then, he was told, he should never wear a tie or suit.
Well things have changed. Companies reputations rest upon their clients image of them through their employees, and that impression begins at the interview.
I personally don’t want to work anywhere that will require me to wear a suit and tie on a daily basis. So, I don’t ever wear a suit or tie to my interviews. They obviously liked my resume if I got an interview, and if they are okay with me dressing “business casual,” then I’ll work for them. Otherwise, I’d just as soon find a different company to work for.
