Job interview -- suit or corporate casual
Guaranos:
Unless the interviewer or the recruiter tells you not to wear a suit, wear a suit. It doesn't matter if the person interviewing you is in a bathrobe, you're supposed to be putting your best foot forward.

I bought a light suit coat and pants for under 500, I'll be picking it up later this afternoon and putting it on just before the interview.
I'm hoping my usual Murphy's law luck doesn't come into play, because of the bad timing so many things can go wrong.
This is my first interview in a while and like shopping for a house I'll probably go on a lot more so I’ll get my money’s worth out of this suit.
Thanks guys.

Let us not forget proper grooming. Nails trimmed, hair within keeping.
Who cares what you look like after you land the job, but suit with wild greasy hair and dirty or chewed nails would tell me something about you.
I always like to go out in business casual, with Shirt and a little crazy tie. That way its a great conversation opener. " Hey I like your tie...." :blah:
Take the time to go to a hair stylist and have a manicure. Its not a girly thing and feels great after you had one. If it is a woman interviewer, she will look at your hands and form an opinion.
It sounds odd, but its true. ;D

It wasn't forgotten, I specifically mentioned it up near the top of the thread.

I know quite a few completely straight guys who take very good care of their nails. I don't think there is anything gay about a guy having properly trimmed nails. Me personally, I chew mine until they are stumps.
