Whats everybody wearing to the PEPC? It says business casual however I'm seeing threads on hear with people wearing suites.
Wear a suit. At the very least wear dress slacks, shined shoes, a shirt, and tie.
If you don't want to wear a suit, don't wear a suit.
To each his own.. You're guaranteed a TOL if you make it to the PEPC. Go for comfort.That isn't a very mature way of looking at preparing for a job interview. It's one thing to flatter your wants and whims but when it comes to a job interview - it's best to present yourself in the most professional matter possible.
You only get a chance at a first impression once, and while the managers you meet at your PEPC may not be your boss tomorrow... they may be one day.
Except this is not a normal job interview. This is a formality job interview. The very fact that you're at the PEPC means you already have the job. They ask everyone the same questions pretty much to just get a few minutes of face time with the applicants. As long as you give a sane answer you're good to go. Go for comfort! Khakis and a collared shirt.That isn't a very mature way of looking at preparing for a job interview.

When you say 20th century, do you mean employed?
Either way, I'm pretty sure you'd get the job in a polo and khakis, but who wants to be the odd man out in that room? 60 other people looking at you like you're a bum?
I went to a Union Pacific group interview. This one kid wore a 3pc, and was so nervous, he had flashcards with interview answers. There were 3 or so others with ties, but the rest of us wore slacks and a collared shirt.
Guess who was the first to go home.
Not to say it's the suit, but it just means the suit doesn't get you the job.
Dress for the JOB, not the interview. As many many many etc. have said, it's just a formality. The FAA NEEDS eager bodies, and they're not gonna turn you away because you don't have a tie. No no, they'll do that AFTER you get to your facility.
If you wanna wear a tie, or a suit, or bus cas, just do it. there are enough other things to stress about, like how to pay a mortgage, feed your kids, all while trying to live a second life for 3 months.
:bandit: Chill.
Also, I heard a rumot that every Wednesday ... is Hawaiian shirt day.
So, you know, if you want, ... you can wear a Hawaiian shirt ... and jeans.
How are you moving along in your process?
