black suit + yellow shirt + blue tie? seriously? wear a white shirt.

 

[MagnusTheBrewer]

It might be ok but, a plain white shirt is guaranteed faux pas free.

it's a very light yellow shirt but you're right
I'll wear a white shirt

Why would you ever want to take a chance unless it's a company with a really loose corporate policy.

White or light blue shirt. No exceptions.

i don't think i'd do the yellow with a black suit, maybe with a dark yellow and blue tie. do you have an earth-toned suit?

 

[MJinZ]

You can wear any color tie (no pinks), but best to keep your shirt conservative.

 

[brblx]

wear a brown suit and rock the dwight shrute look.

 

[jingramm]

thanks guys. I was actually not aware it should be white or light blue only
good to know

you don't have a grey suit? black suit should be for dinner parties or weddings.

Nothing wrong with a black suit tho imo.

if you have only one suit, it better be black.

I dress conservative for interviews just to be safe. I guess it depends what kind of company you're interviewing with.

unless you're interviewing for Hallmark's easter department, wearing blue on yellow won't look solid

White or light blue shirt. No exceptions.

what he said. ALWAYS dress conservatively for the interview process. Wait until you get the job to start dressing like you have no taste in clothing...😛

You guys really think people in this day and age really want you to wear a white shirt? Wear the yellow...

My uncle, who is a corporate headhunter, once advised me thusly regarding the interview: "Dress like a banker."

If you can figure out what that means, then go ahead and do it.

While that might look nice depending on the occasion/combo it's really not interview wear. I've worn a pale green or a pale pink and a black tie for interviews (both of which I was accepted for the position) but that's as daring as I've ever been.

Exactly. Show up on the first day clean shaven, with short hair, and wearing nice clothes. Then let yourself go over a period of 3 months.
