Uh oh. Here comes another discussion about red ties.

I wear blue or purple.

 

[deleted927529]

I wear either a red and blue patterned tie or a golden one.

Don’t wear bright red. Please. Dark red is fine. I personally wore blue

 

[Cornfed101]

I have dozens of ties, so I have not worn the same tie twice to an interview. Most of the time they are blue or red, or gold... depends on my mood

 

[Rachapkis]

Any main stream tie should be fine. The key is not to be remembered for what you wore. I would stick to the basics: blue or charcoal solid suit, a solid shirt (white or light blue); and an understated blue, red or yellow tie. Don't be "that" guy.

 

[Gilakend]

I wore the same maroon-ish one to every interview.

Look at all those red ties. 20% of SDNer's pulling that power move. That is how you show dominance, right there.

*This is an exaggeration and tie color is almost meaningless in the grand scheme of things. Getting my joke in before the red tie debate comes.*

I stick to dark ties in burgundy, navy, charcoal with solid or subtle patterns. Pair with a navy or charcoal suit + white/light blue shirt and you really can't go wrong. It's possible to look good without standing out.

I wore a gold tie. A few downsides for sure. One, I had to get a blacksmith to actually tie it as I am only able to bend softer metals with my bare hands. This added some considerable time onto my prep. Also the weight of it would have definitely broken most backs but thankfully I had been training for years to handle this. The peasantry on the way to the interview shot me looks that put me on edge of burglary from those ruffians. One perk was, incase of an assault from the ne'er do wells, it would double as a makeshift shield for my torso. I had to do an MMI roleplay as a doctor with an elderly patient, I forgot the length of the tie and it swung forward, knocking her unconscious. Though after some quick arguing on my end I managed to convince the interviewer that it was in fact a way to get the patient to agree to a sedative, even if unconventional. Would recommend.


I wore a yellow one because I looked best in it.

It must not have been pure gold because pure gold is quite malleable. #notsavage #walter4ever

I prefer steel rebar ties. It is very malleable if you apply jet fuel at the right angle. Not for too long though, as it might melt.

Maybe the thin scraps the peasantry scamper off with. The ingot I had around my neck was much too thick.

Small tangent here, but I couldn't resist storytime. I used to work as a TA in a machine shop and we taught students how to sand cast. We used an induction furnace to melt aluminum and we had to warn the students to be very careful because if molten aluminum drops on your shoe it will burn right through your shoe and your foot like a hot knife through butter.

Moral of the story, don't melt a metal tie while it is on your neck.

Wear a dark tie with a small detail or texture.
Learn to tie a knot that is consistent with the texture of the tie.
Do not wear a solid black tie...

Probably a hopeful future GI doc.

I went with a silver/blue/black regimental tie.
