More fun from the guys at eWeek. I have some interviewing coming up in a few weeks so sage advice for my candidates :)
Inappropriate dress doesn't both me though. I do it all the time myself!

While "inappropriate dress" may not bother you (or me) -- the reality is “what” you wear is important for the interview AND your daily job.
Sure, you can still get your work done in shorts & T-shirt -- and most engineers and programmers think that is ALL that matters. But that was fine in college . . . and when (if) you finally start dressing for the professional workplace you'll never know the additional respect you'd earn and advancement opportunities you’ve missed.
In my experience, when everyone dresses “appropriately” there is a synergistic effect on the team – everybody’s work & attitude improves.
Sadly we DO judge a book by its cover -- and if you walked into a room of engineers and only one was dressed professionally -- which one would you "think" was the manager? - Anonymous
