Do some people go on job interviews in less formal attire?



Everyone always says i need a suit for interviews.
What if it's too hot for suits?
Don't some people wear khaki pants & short sleeved shirts?
Do some guys wear short sleeved dress shirts or light colored slacks?

I've seen it in a few movies and some youtube videos.

Id still hire someone if they weren't wearing a jacket, as long as your dressed smart and have a good head on your shoulders. (And are right for the job)
guess what in the western part of the USA yes, plus the manager is casual
on the east coast suite and tie. business for woemen.
It depends on the job you are trying to get. If your boss is wearing a tie, and you aren't I would say the chance of getting the job is pretty slim.
are you applying to the ,movies or youtube for a job???
This depends on the industry. If you are going to be working in an office, then you need to wear a suit. Hold the jacket until you arrive, but don't skip it outright if you are a college grad. if it's a summer job, you can get by with dark trousers and a white shirt and tie. If it is a more informal position, like a golf course, then by all means, wear the khakis and sport shirt.

Ladies do not have to wear a suit to an interview, unless you're a professional (i.e. attorney or on Wall Street), or unless it is the norm for the other women in the office. Do your research. A dark dress, with the hem close to the knees, not sleeveless, not too tight, is appropriate.

Under no circumstances should you wear jeans to an interview, no matter what your age. Take pride in your appearance. It says a lot about how you will perform your work.
I'm sure some people do, however, I'm sure they aren't the first choice for a job either, unless it's janitorial. Remember that you only have one chance to make a first impression. Do you want that first impression to be khakis and a polo, or do you want it to be more professional? I suggest wearing a suit, if it's too hot for a suit, slacks, a long sleeve dress shirt and a tie are definitely acceptable with appropriate shoes and socks. Yes, you do still need to wear that t-shirt under your long sleeve shirt, sorry. Oh, by the way, short sleeve dress shirts with a tie is soooooo DMV.
Yes - pretty much very body who cares to be hired wears a suit. It's the effort of dressing up for the occassion is what counts NOT the attire.
