<p>So... what should i wear to an interview? Is it just a casual thing or is it dressy like a suit and tie thing?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Definitely dress in a way you feel comfortable, but I think a nice pair of pants and a nice shirt couldn't hurt -- I mean, you're making an impression on this person, and it's nice to show a little respect through your choice of clothing.</p>
<p>Of course, I'm sure plenty of people have gotten into MIT after wearing suits, jeans, ripped shirts, khakis, or anything else -- MIT is that sort of place! But if it were me, I'd dress a notch or two nicer than I would on the average day.</p>
<p>EDIT: Could I have used the word "nice" any more times in this post???</p>
<p>Depends wholly on the situation. My interviewer wanted to talk to me right after school on the first day of school, and said just wear whatever I wore to school that day.</p>
<p>He was a great guy, and the interview turned out great. Don't fret it.</p>
<p>My guy said the same thing too... to come right after school and wear whatever I was wearing... which turned out to be jeans and my matrixy/sci-fi programming tournament shirt... pretty convenient!!!</p>
<p>wear a tie and nothing else</p>
<p>Now that's hot. I'd let you in ;)</p>
