Job interview attire. Kind of spin off

Haven't been on an interview in a decade. What is the norm nowadays. I wore a suit last time and other applicants were in khakis and polo shirts.
Also this would be for a piping design position

I would wear a suit. Don't be what the feminists want you to be.

I always wear my best suit and favorite tie to job interviews.
But I have never applied for pipe design jobs.

unless they specifically tell you that it is a casual interview, I'd wear a suit

unless specifically told otherwise I'm in a suit

Huge mistake.
An interview is an opportunity for a possible employer to get to know you, what does a suit tell them about you? Nothing.
Wear something that fits your personality and makes a statement about who you are. Not just another lame arse in a suit.

a suit seems kind of overkill for subway

doubt you need to wear a suit

Typically a suit is only recommended for Executive level jobs or jobs in finance or legal.
Know your industry.
You really cant go wrong with a nice dress shirt, dress slacks (not khakis), and a nice pair of dress shoes.
Protip: Just because your dressed nice, there's no need to go nuts with the cologne.
Eta: It's winter, so a nice winter sport coat would not be out of place, but skip the tie.

^This
Wore a suit one time and everyone else in the office was wearing a polo/button down with jeans/khakis. Was for an assistant PM job. Felt like a huge tool. Thanks LSU Construction Interviewing Day career advisers for always saying to wear a suit.

You can never have too much money, friends or cologne. shite wears off throughout the day so pour it on thick in the morning to last til show time.

Lol. No.
Wear a suit. Even in O&G, wear a suit. Dark grey or navy is the standard paired with a white or light-blue dress shirt and a simple tie. You want them to remember you looked professional, but not exactly what you were wearing.

Appreciate the advice guys. I hate wearing a tie but you gotta do what you gotta do

I just think of it as a first impression. You can't go wrong with a suit. Besides, if you are open to advancing within the company, you need to wear a suit to an interview.

Don't know what piping design is, but rule of thumb is, white collar job = suit, blue collar job = dress pants and dress shirt.
You can also wear a blue blazer with slacks and tie if not sure.

WTF are you talking about?
That is so wrong I don't even know where to begin. You should wear a suit to interview for a vast majority of office jobs.

And who wears cologne to a job interview? That's absurd
