I, as many of my colleagues, certainly dressed up for the office, carefully selecting only the most witty but understated T-shirts.

I've often wondered about dress code for programmers. From a quick poll conducted at lunchtime, we concluded that there definitely is a way to dress for acceptance among devs, it's just hoodies and witty T-shirts instead of suits and ties.

Several people confirmed that they would probably be biased against applicants for dev positions coming in for an interview in a full on business suit with tie and slicked back hair (think "slick salesman" look). Perhaps not justified or fair, but interesting as a data point nonetheless. N=4 though, so don't take it too seriously.

I remember going to a meeting with fellow students I never met before.

It was at a time I applied for jobs after university and so I thought, I might wear a collars shirt to the meeting, to get in the mood.

All of my fellow CS students (aged 25-50) were wearing tshirts and generally more casual attire.

The first thing I was asked: Oh, do you study management?
