SDN published an article about virtual residency interviews last year that has some tips (though based on input earlier in the thread, a green screen is probably not recommended):

I ended up buying a suit jacket. I have a button up shirt that's the same color there's only a shade of difference between them. That won't matter right? Like the dress shirt is dark blue and the suit is slightly darker blue.

blue on blue generally works, i think usually the trend is darker jacket, lighter shirt, darker tie if everything is shades of blue/black/grey, but as long as it differentiates on camera at least a little you should be fine
I think I’m going navy blue and pink. Anybody good at matching know which tie color matches this?
How should I go about explaining a job in finance that I currently have? Will it look bad that it’s not directly related to clinical care (I cover healthcare/life sciences investments but don’t think that will fly.) I was thinking more along the lines of the intellectually challenging/collaborative environment at the firm. It also allows me to help my family out. Beyond that, I have always followed capital markets but more as a hobby than a long term career. Not sure if this will suffice.
Fun fact: Michael Burry, most notably known for predicting the subprime mortgage collapse as depicted in the big short, was a resident at Stanford when he began writing about stocks. Not sure if I could work this fun fact in but I think it speaks to medical students having interests beyond medicine?

Navy blue shirt all the way. Pink shirt??? Gawd no
It's a pre-med delusion that everything one does has to be related to Medicine.

1) i really don't think it matters 2) no one should be taking fashion advice from me, I'm just reiterating what I've heard
Black suits are for funerals! I will die on this hill.
Pink shirt can look great with a gray or navy suit. Pale pink, not hot pink.
