How are we expected to dress for the dinners? E.g., tie vs. no tie for the gentlemen?

I vote for no tie

No tie, collared shirt/khakis worked fine for me last year.

yep, collared shirts and khakis for me too. Since it'll be winter soon, a nice sweater and khakis works well too.

Cool, thanks!

I based my attire on where the dinner was being held. Usually went no tie but one interview had the pre dinner at a pretty fancy place so I put on a tie. Some of the applicants had ties and others didn't; I don't think anyone cared.

I would wear business casual attire: khakis, chinos, corduroys, sweaters, button-downs, sport coats, nice shoes, etc. Do not wear sneakers or a t-shirt to these events unless you are interviewing in California.
