A few simple rules regarding clothes and interviews:
1. Do not be noticed for your clothing. You do not want to be the “guy with the Bugs Bunny tie.” This is not the time to be creative, unfortunately.
2. Be professional but comfortable. You may have to walk a mile between interviews. I still remember a miserable ten minutes in a Manhattan winter, getting from one building to another.
3. Pack carry-on. I won’t forget the embarrassed applicant who came to our institution in jeans when his suitcase was lost by the airline.
