I heard a great story last night about an interviewee.
The guy walks in carrying a gallon jug of water and asks teh interviewer if he smokes weed. The guy says no and wonders WTF. The water guy then asks him if he can smoke weed in the interview. The guy conducting the interview said no but talked to him anyway and then sent him to interview everyone else in the office. That was 5 years ago and people still laugh out loud at it
generally a suit and tie

i dress a peg up from what i would usually wear to work, which is usually very casual.
it is a show of respect for the company who is considering you for a job.

I go to interviews even when I am not that interested in the job. It has been really good practice and I am really good at interviewing and staying relaxed. I also like to go in with no preparation on what I might say so that I can improve my ability to talk about my skills and experience fluently no matter what they ask.

That would be funny to come to an interview with a bag on your head. Until they call security anyway.

i had to talk this guy into letting me work one day for free so he could see i was good hahaha

Seriously? That's odd. The work in your portfolio is nice.

I'm the same way. I love to wing it. I don't prepare anything and I try not to even think about the interview at all

haha, so you had to prove your not really a slug. I've been called a sloth before. Mostly because I walk slow.
