I am going for a third interview with a potential employer. I think the first two interviews have gone well and I would like to get this job as I think it is a good fit for me.
My question, the person that is doing the interviewing sent me an email that said, "Can you come in for a very informal meeting?"
I would normally wear a business suit to any job interview, but do you think it's necessary for a "very informal meeting?"
Happened with me at my new company, the managing director made me take off my tie and said "if anyone give you shit, tell them I told you".
I interpret that question to mean that the format of the discussion will be informal/conversational as opposed to interviewer asking canned questions to interviewee.
Good luck!
Good luck!
That was my interpretation as well. Suit up...they're looking to have a more laid-back discussion with you, but I didn't take "informal" to mean you are invited to dress down.
You don't want them to think you can't follow instructions, do you?
dress up a notch or two above what you think you'd be wearing for the job.
Always assume you're looking to impress.
go with casual dress: dress pants, a nice shirt.

Who knows, maybe they want to understand what you think business casual is, maybe they want you to ask questions instead of assuming a style of dress. These are good measures and tests of emotional intelligence as well. Can this guy execute or have "good judgement?".
Guess I'll go with the hoodie and sweats. lol j/k
Btw, this is a small accounting firm. No real HR Department.
Thanks again.
Go get em tiger.
Good luck!
