What should you wear at the interview? A suit and tie or just casual? I have a nice dress shirt, dress pants, and was hoping to be casual and just wear black running shoes. What did you all wear or will wear?

I HATE miles, gallons, pints, words spelled without u's, and all that other jazz...

I think you should wear business casual. Dress shirt, tie, nice slaks or suit pants. Your interview is important, you should dress the part. In the end, wear what you're most confortable in. You could wear jeans and a nice polo shirt too and still be okay.

Good luck with your interview!

LOL I don't know how to tie a tie either. Some people were right. There were some that didn't really dress up at all and some that dressed up even more than I did.
