Correct that there is no formal definition for business casual.

None of the Atlas employees who interviewed us had ties on. If you did wear a tie, you would most likely stand out and standing out because of my clothing was something I tried to avoid during my interview. I felt that my background, my character, and my answers were what I wanted them to remember.

Seemed to work for me. YMMV

Default why argue and get defensive

When I had my phone interview last year DB said business casual in MIA...I asked what they think business casual is....she said shirt, coat, and slacks, no tie. Why get all defensive or argumentative about it? Just do what they want ....... how hard is that?

Just my 2 cents worth,

Anyone heard anything about the next class? They should have called last week for a class in three weeks if they are still planning one every three weeks. Maybe some plans have changed?!

Oh and the dress code thing...from the interview email...

"The interview dress code is business casual.* For example, for men, dress pants, sportcoat, and shirt.* For women, dress pants or slacks and blouse (skirts and dresses are also acceptable)."

Seems pretty clear what they want. They're not going to pick your clothes out for you though.

For those of you curious about interviews, here's another way to see when the next interviews are/may be coming. Instead of marking on the calander every three weeks for the interviews (reminds me of the wife keeping track of the menstrul cycle! HA HA) it seems that interviews are done the next three days FOLLOWING the Monday of the new hire classes. I've said this before but I think I'm on to something here.

Now if I could only solve the World's problems this easy. Good luck!
