Hi everyone,

I obviously know that we should wear nice suits for interviews, but how are we supposed to dress the night before at the dinner with the residents?

Thanks!
 
I'd dress like I was going on a nice date
 
The Program Coordinators can tell you the type of attire that's suggested but the general wisdom has been, even if jeans/"hey its totally casual" are recommended, that men should wear khaki-type pants with a collared shirt and women a nice blouse/sweater set with trousers. Remember, its still an interview.
 
Typically can't go wrong with a nice pair of khakis and collared button down shirt. Works for all situations except formal which the PC would likely let you know beforehand (didn't ever come across a formal pre-interview dinner).
