Hey gang,
I'm wondering what people think of wearing a dress with a suit jacket on a Peds interview rather than a jacket and skirt/pants combo. I'd love to avoid buying a whole suit if I can get away with just a new jacket, and I'd certainly feel more comfortable wearing my own clothes on the interview trail. A friend who's also applying in Peds told me she'd heard that Peds interviews often require more conservative dress than we may expect given the reputation the field has for being pretty supportive and open-armed. This seems like such a weird balance between being "safe" and trying to "set yourself apart" (and I'm also pretty fashion-clueless, haha). Can anyone help?
I own this dress, and two more with similar cut and style: http://bit.ly/2nQIHt
The only advice I found from some Googling was this: http://bit.ly/8Tb2b
