[quote=Anonymous]The rule that I learned is that you should dress nicer for the interview than you would on an average day on the job if you get it.  In other words, even if people there aren't wearing suits, you need to wear one.

Personally, I think a very nice business-y dress is fine in place of a suit (particularly if the weather is hot).  However, I think a suit says business more than a dress does.  If your resume and personality are pretty straight-on business and typical for this job, a dress might be fine.  If you want to up your professionalism a little or feel you look young or inexperienced, I'd wear a suit for sure.

Honestly, the easiest thing and best thing is to just wear a black/gray/navy suit if you own one.  If you get there and find it's really casual, you can always take off the jacket at some point (though I can't imagine anyone doing this in most cases).  I don't think skirt vs. pants matters at all these days -- whatever you like better and feel comfortable in.[/quote]
