<p>I am a student newsly transferring into Tepper. Spent my freshman year in MCS and decided to trasnfer. As a sophomore, what kind of business attires will I need? (business formal, casual, both..? anything else if needed?) </p>

<p>I know there are a couple of recruiting events, but i did not attend those last year so I'm not sure how the process works. Can anyone explain that briefly? what exactly goes on, etc. do you just show up with a resume and go around talking to recruiters? The only major classes I've taken so far are Principles of econ and stats, and multivariate calc. </p>

<p>what other tepper events are there, and will I need business formal attires for all of these evensts?</p>

<p>Well, for presentations in some business classes, you’ll need at least business casual. a suit is nice for job interviews, and definitely required for the opportunity conferences, like BOC. very good to go to, even starting as early as sophomore year. having a handful of nice shirts and at least a few nice ties wouldn’t hurt.</p>

<p>BOC is the big one. Business professional or you won’t be let in. It also isn’t bad for the TOC and EOC.</p>

<p>It’s nice to have one just in case. Whether it’s an interview for an internship or a club position, a good suit helps make a solid first impression. And you’re in freaking BUSINESS, get used to it early on.</p>
