I’m in a position that does interviews for software engineering. In my entire time working in this field I’ve seen one person wear a suit to an interview. It made them stand out all right, but not in a good way. We all wondered wtf was wrong with that guy after the interview.
Really? Isn't it normal to wear suits to interviews?
Depends on the position and the company. Ask the HR person or whoever's scheduling you. If you'll be meeting with customers like government or finance, they may want to see you in a suit even if you won't be wearing one every day.
Not in software and website development. It is very out of place.
Not in software development in the US. I wore ripped skinny jeans, converse, and a t-shirt to the most recent in person interview I had. I was hired.
