Simple dress shirt trousers and black shoes. Wear a tie if you want but it makes you look overdressed for a minimal wage job
>>
>>27824237
Similar, except sometimes I have to have meetings over video call. When that happens I wear a nice polo, but no pants, cause the camera can only see me from the waist up :)

Wearing suits is a douchebag thing to do for most jobs, even for offices most dress codes are just business casual now. Slacks with a dress shirt and tie is perfect for 99% of job interviews.

I always hear people bitch about how hard it is to get a job. I wore a suit and got a job easy as fuck. I guess it helps I know basic word processor use and love sucking my own dick but it seems like a sure thing after the interview.

Its nice too because suits are true neutral. No thought required or having to get dressed up, you just put it on, the only rules being no black shoes and save the fun ties for Fridays. They're comfy too. What kind of jackass actually wants to wear jeans? A normal pair of trousers or athletic pants will be a better choice pretty much every time.

The whole point of a suit is it's not try at all, its just normal. You can't wear a tie without a jacket by the way, not unless you want to look like a jackass.

Why are you so threatened by suits anyway? I quite like being able to get dressed and look impeccable with my eyes closed if I so wanted. If it's real casual I might wear a blazer or other odd jacket, but that requires more effort, not less.

Really it's probably just a culture thing. America has a proud heritage and puritan work ethic. Suits will look normal in most settings here and you would look out of place without one if you were to work in finance, sales, or law. Even managers were suits in America in all but the dumpiest places like kebab owned gas stations and dollar stores.

A suit is try hard, the fact you don't understand this means you're autistic. There is a point where one person becomes over dressed and at most modern businesses wearing a suit is over dressing.

They haven't. It really is a respect thing. There are a shitload of people who really will regard you as being intentionally offensive, if you don't wear a suit to a meeting. In--house is different. But you're not in-house if you're interviewing. I would wear a suit to a meeting with investors, a potential client, or even an infrastructure partner like when we have an electrical company come over to talk about renovating a space for new offices.

I didn't used to be one of those people who got offended by people who don't wear suits. But I kinda am, now. I'm working and I have shit to do, and I'm not doing those other things to be here in this meeting, with you. If you aren't prepared enough to wear a suit, then you're shitting all over my time that you're taking.
>>
>>27826751

Can we clarify what we are talking about?

If you are going to a job interview for a job anything above McDonald's you need a full suit. A suit is baseline for an interview and considered the minimum. End of story.

If you are working on the job refer to my other post, >>27825934 where I do agree, some nice dress pants and a dress shirt will get the job done unless you work at a prestigious firm.

And that's why you're not handling money.

If saving money is so much of a concern to you that you're saving 500 dollars on a suit from Kohl's instead of a custom tailored suit that signify's you probably don't have that much money to begin with.

>the type of fabric you wear determines how well you handle money

It doesn't. It's a baseline requirement for the aforementioned emulating security and stability. It's a sign of taking the job seriously and making sure your 1 million dollar investment doesn't go to shit because your money handler was too lazy to take the job seriously when someone from another firm stepped up and went the extra mile. If you can't take how you project image seriously nobody will trust you with money.
>>
>>27827286
>what's the fucking point?
My time is the fucking point. I get paid for it, I have shit to do, and here I am in this interview with you.

You are asking me for money, in an interview. Sure: you're willing to work for that money, ok. But it's still money out of my department's budget. You would be taking money that could be going to raises to any of these people I'm working with, and asking me to give it to you, instead. But I can't give them raises, because I have to get a different position filled. And you want me to fill it with you, with money from my budget.

You are asking me for money. Show some respect for that, and take the time to look the way I expect you to. Or I'll spend the money on someone who does.

You're like those headphone faggots over at /g/ who believe spending $2000 on headphones for "muh sound quality" is legitimate reasoning.

Not even a vaguely comparable scenario. A 1000 dollar suit is well worth it when you're going to make a 1% return on your clients investment of 1 million and net yourself 10,000 dollars. And you can wear that suit over and over and keep a steady income from your clients because you went the extra mile to make a good impression to clients that you take the job seriously.

Again, it's a baseline requirement. The credentials go far beyond owning a suit, but if you can't even meet the corporate minimum nobody will take you seriously.

Depends on the job. It used to be true simply because qualified candidates were in high demand.

It's still true at some tech companies, because slacks and a polo shirt have become the ultra-business-cas. But find out whether the business is publicly or privately owned, first. Because if it's a public company? Then chances are the CEO is a guy who knows how to raise money from shareholders, and his job is basically being a professional at convincing old people to give him money. I guarantee you the company he works at wants you wear a suit, in your interview.

So if I show up in nothing but underwear, but that underwear costs $1000, it should be the same right? Obviously fucking not. It's not a suit. So if I am wearing a suit, but it costed me $50, and looks the same as one that costs $1000, what am I paying for? The brand?

>The credentials go far beyond owning a suit, but if you can't even meet the corporate minimum nobody will take you seriously.
Why is this minimum based upon fabric?

At what point does the expense of a suit indicate "ability to handle money". I could go out, get a fancy suit or whatever from Nordstram, and that somehow indicates I'm ready for business? Not a degree, ability to do my job, value from previous employers?

Well, why not? You might have climbed up the manager ladder

I worked in retail when I was 19 and one of the higher executives visited, I think he was the district manager or something. He talked to me in the office about future job prospects just because I always looked sharp during my shifts, I mean as sharp as you can look in black pants and a shirt with a logo on it. But some of the other guys there were really sloppy.

I didn't do it because retail sucks but still.

People in my office building treat me differently ever since I bought a nice coat. When I walk down the stairs or something, strangers assume I'm some big guy.

Seriously. I'm so glad I'm not in business.

Agreed. I wouldn't mind it as much if getting into a company meant job security like it did decades ago, but sadly that's not in our culture anymore.

>>27827928

If the societal standard set expensive underwear as the standard for taking a job seriously, by all means, go all in.

>If I'm wearing a suit that cost me $50

Now you're goalpost shifting. Suddenly we've worked our way up from slacks and a polo to a legitimate suit by your words. If you can seriously get away with a $50 dollar suit that looks like a $500 dollar suit, by all means go for it. The same concept still applies here, which is looking and dressing well despite your abstract monetary figure. You wear a suit not because you want to impress people with how much cash you spent, but because you want to impress people that you take the job seriously.

>why is this minimum base on fabric

Because buying a good suit is unbelievably easy and if you can't even accomplish that then you're out of your league.

>and what point does the expense of a suit indicate "ability to handle money"

Again, for the umpteenth time, you buy a suit because you take the job seriously, the borderline minimum. It is what gives you one step up on chucklefucks like you who wear some slacks from Kohl's and thinks that he can get away with that when somebody else stepped up, went the extra mile and took a bit more effort.

Now the rest of the interview/session/meeting will determine if you have the ability to handle money.

>Now you're goalpost shifting.
The reason I said "obviously fucking not, it's not a suit" is because I was anticipating you're response to that question. So I preemptively answered it. Seems like you need to learn basic reading skills.

>You wear a suit not because you want to impress people with how much cash you spent, but because you want to impress people that you take the job seriously.
What is the difference? All I'm reading here is how seriously you take the job is equal to the amount you spend on a suit.

>Because buying a good suit is unbelievably easy and if you can't even accomplish that then you're out of your league.
So, if it's so easy, and makes no indication of job skills, just that you somehow guessed your interviewer wanted a suit this time, why make it a standard? This isn't an industry wide standard, plenty of jobs tell applicants they interview in business casual.

>Again, for the umpteenth time, you buy a suit because you take the job seriously, the borderline minimum.

You mean jewed out even more shekels and should be glad he did it?

I think it's a sad reflection on the current world when your ability to do a job is based upon what you wear.

Here's what I don't get: why argue about why you think it shouldn't matter?

Like you'll win the argument, and tomorrow you'll wake up in a magical, new world that conforms to your personal standards?

It's about respect for other people, and how they perceive your actions as disrespectful to them.

Are you trying to hone your arguments to present them in an interview? You can't win this argument because there is no argument. You are being informed about how the world is, and you think you can change that by arguing about why you want it to be different.

You can't. Want to change it? Put on a suit. Get into a job where you hire people. Hire people who aren't wearing suits in interviews. Voila: you changed something.
>>
>>27828279
>Here's what I don't get: why argue about why you think it shouldn't matter?
Why are you arguing that they do matter? I fucking know the world won't change, but convincing people that corporate politics, bureaucracy and fucking suits are stupid one person at a time will. I'm not even arguing to change your mind. I'm changing the minds of people reading my posts and lurking.

Just to be clear? So do I. I wear a t-shirt, slacks and flip-flops to work, most days. But I wear a suit to meetings and interviews, because I have manners and self-respect.

>>27828246
>seems like you need to learn basic reading skills

I'm well aware of your logic, but I'm arguing with a guy who thinks you don't need a suit to an interview so being a bit more concise really doesn't hurt here.

>>27828246
>what is the difference? all i'm reading here is how seriously you take the job is equal to the amount you spent on a suit

It's equal to how good you want to look and emulate the repeated ad nauseum security/stability rhetoric I've been reiterating. And yes, if you take the job seriously you will go the extra mile. Well done.

>why make it a standard?
Because it's that easy. I'm repeating myself here now. It separates chucklefucks like you who can't even do something incomprehensibly easy from the people who can. It doesn't make an indication of job skill, it indicates that you take the job seriously, which I'm getting tired of typing. The rest of the interview will determine how well you are with money. If you come to the job with excellent skills in accounting, money management, or an impressive portfolio but come shabbily dressed, I would think that you don't really take your skill set seriously and I wouldn't be inclined to loan you 1 million dollars.

>jewed out even more shekels and be glad he did it
You should be glad he take it seriously. Christ.

>I think it's a sad reflection on the current world when your ability to do a job is based upon what you wear

It isn't. Taking a job seriously and actually having the skills to carry out said job are two different things. Before you retort with "then why wear a suit", please note my paragraph above the penultimate green text in this post.

Alright, so instead of replying to that post with the exact same argument I used before and getting nowhere, how about this.
If an applicant asked what type of dress to wear to the interview, how would you respond? If you tell him to fuck off, why.

How is wearing a suit just to make your boss happy self-respectful?
>>
>>27827720
I've done this. It wasn't even a polo, just a hoodie and cargo pants. It was just a 3 month contract though, and I basically had it before the interview. I work in computer security.

Tons of people wear suits all the time though. Some of them are retarded pointy haired boss types, some are legit. If you're in a large company and in management then you have to dress better than the guys under you. It's just how it is.

You're replying with the same exact argument because you're a retarded child and doesn't know when his points have been countered.

"Dress like you take the job seriously."

Hispanic men I've worked with have been quite pleasant. But I live the North.
Blacks are split, many young blacks are kind of lazy, and only work when they're being watched. Not that it bothers me, I didn't have much loyalty either.
Some are cool guys, some are just awful.
Women were mostly awful regardless of race.

You always wear a stylish suit that is tailored on ANY interview, period. Right away it shows you are fucking serious, even if it's overdressed for the job. That goes a long, long way.

I've only had a few serious interviews in my life. Everytime I wore a suit and everytime I got the job.

That's right. I've never had an interview where I did not get the job. My current job I got out of over 100 applicants, and a dozen interviews. 80k a year figuring out what other jagoffs should get paid.

if you were a charming Chad that kind of shit might just work.
>>
>>27830988

And doing those 3 alone probably sets me to only a few others in the interview process. My natural good looks, charm, intellect and resume took me the rest of the way.

You want to look and act like someone they want to be friends with and see everyday. If you look like a model in a suit and act confident and cool but friendly and not douchey they will overlook a lot of things in your resume.

I mean unless you are grossly unqualified you can be trained to do a lot of entry level jobs without experience.

This guy is right. You need to git gud.

Suits are for corporate cogs, which is legit if that's what you want. They give off that East Coast "I get promotions by drinking with the right people" vibe
