Columbia Interview - Attire

by topspin360 » Fri Sep 26, 2014 1:01 pm
Hey Guys,

I've got a CBS interview on a Sunday at a coffee shop. I was going to wear a formal suit with a tie but now I'm not sure. Do you guys have an idea of what's appropriate - should I go with a sport coat?

Thanks.

Good attire will never get you in, a bad attire choice could cause someone to say "Huh? They wore what?" Personally, for a coffee shop, I think either is fine. Others will inevitably disagree with me -- but that's why this is fun :-)
