Even I dressed up for my wife's interview and her IO never even looked at me, but we were planning on lunch afterwards, so how would it look if she was all dressed up and I was wearing torn blue jeans with a tank top? And yes, we can dress very comfortably when going camping, cycling, or kayaking.

I was one of the "procrastinators" :). I was so focused on putting my papers together, learning all i needed to learn for the interview and handeling my nervous feelings, that it completly slipped my mind the "dress code" for that day. Not for one second i thought it matter what i wear, but when i made it to the waiting room, i took a look arround and saw most if not all that were sitting there waiting for their turn, dressed up in business like attires. Not even then i didn't notice what i was wearing or thought anything of it; i did notice though what others were wearing LOL. Up untill now, when hearing you guys talk about this, made me realise how inapropriate i was dressed: a pair of "funky" jeans(i dodn't know how else to describe them) and a leather jacket.

If i were to do it again, i'd choose a different attire, because i don't recall seeing one person there wearing jeans. But thank God i don't have to; i passed the interview, funky jeans, leather jacket and all:).

I wore pants and black blouse with white dots :blush: , a coat and scarf, and formal black shoes. I think I might have overdressed a little when looking to the other people waiting to be interviewed. I guess it does not matter that much for the interview but for the oath they want you to be more dressed-up.
