I have an upcoming interview with a nyc startup for a potential business development position. I'll be meeting with the head of biz dev and possibly the CEO. I'm wondering what to wear to the interview. I had been in the office previously meeting with some other people and the culture is casual. Previously I wore dress pants and a shirt and felt fine for the situation. However, I was there meeting with technical people and it was more of an informational context.<p>I'm wondering whether I might want to bring a jacket and/or tie to this next interview. I figure the guys I might be meeting with are more likely to be dressed up themselves since they meet with potential clients, funders, etc.
A good rule of thumb is to dress the same level or one level up from the person you are interviewing with.<p>If you want to seem serious, but not overdo it, perhaps you could wear a jacket with no tie or a tie with no jacket.
