dress for your interview one-tier above the formality of dress the company you are applying to wears.

if the company standard is business casual - wear a suit if everyone is in shorts / tshirts - wear slacks and a shirt with a collar

And what if you're applying to Morgan Stanley or something? Do you wear a tux? A Pope outfit?
