Not to sound like a broken record but I concur with everyone! I will stress No Earrings unless you are applying for a job at Piercing Pagoda. That's a no brainer.

I'd have to echo the sentiments of those above me. Even for a Generation -Y slacker who doesn't need to impress anyone (tongue in cheek) I would always wear a suit and tie to any interview. Just like Dan N first said, "you can always take the tie off". It's gotta be better that being the only one in the room without one.

Literally my life motto: It's better to be <b>overdressed</b> and <i>look</i> like a fool, than to be <b>underdressed</b> and actually <i>be one</i>.<br />

Or another one from a Joseph Abboud ad: "Dress Like Your Boss's Boss."

My opinion is pretty much the mirror image of Dan's but figure I'll chime in to offer more confirmation. Even in my office the dress code is more on the casual side of business casual. Most people outside of our sales department never wear a tie and we come in jeans on Fridays. That said, I wore a suit for all three of the onsite interviews I had and would suggest anybody interviewing her do the same. In my opinion a suit and tie is interview attire, so even if their environment is more casual…

In my opinion a suit and tie is interview attire, so even if their environment is more casual it will probably not be a shock to see you dressed up for the meeting.<br />

Regarding the earrings I would definitely leave them out for the interview process. Even though it is pretty socially appropriate for men to have them, many places do not allow them at work. Despite the very casual nature this could still be the case at this marketing company in question. If after interviewing and landing the job you find it is ok to have them, by all means put them back in.<br />
<br />
The test is really quite simple for the interview. If you think there is a chance your appearance could be controversial at all, don't do it. If you're the right person for the job, being dressed (or decorated) inappropriately would be a terrible way to miss out on the opportunity! That was my inner thought on…tag:recruitingblogs.com,2009-02-03:502551:Comment:5338522009-02-03T16:32:25.518ZJeff Lipschultzhttps://recruitingblogs.com/profile/JeffLipschultz

Why give anyone an option or excuse to say "no", if you think something like that could be an issue.. take it out of the equation.
