Hard to go wrong with a solid color silk tie in navy or grey and a white shirt.

^I always went with diagonal stripes. Now I am wondering if there is a definitive "Do and dont" besides the obvious.

Agreed. I get hit up by recruiters and head hunters to go to interviews here and there. It boggles my mind that folks put in so much thought about what to wear (unless it's a fashion related job where they might ask you to explain your wardrobe of choice on the spot). I spend most of the time researching the company and do my best in the interview. This is my default outfit:
Charcoal suit, white shirt, black grenadine tie, black whole cuts.

I guess so, but I always thought the primary purpose of this thread is to serve as a foundation to building a new robust wardrobe and evolving from the (NT definitition of) streetwear stage.But this is exactly what the thread is about. It's not like he went to "Job Interviewing Better Thread" and asked what to wear.
As someone who's been on both sides of the table, most places wouldn't care if you showed up in a Pitti Uomo approved outfit or a suit that's a size too big. As long as you put an effort and show up in a suit and look presentable, you're good.

Exactly and dude is asking for advice to get over the hump or at least get him started.
Yes it is a solid advice to say "know the job you're applying for and the be knowledgeable about company you are applying at first" but by your definition of what this thread is about, that doesn't really help with that.
He was just asking what colors to go with what, sounds simple enough but most of us back in high school would likely go to Ross or Marshall and get the shirt and tie bundle and look like we are about to go to prom with the contrasting color satin shirt and tie.
I mean yes you can go to the interview wearing a choppa suit and get the job but asking for a better alternative doesn't hurt.
I'm just saying the replies sounds a bit discouraging if the answers you get are like "don't worry about what you're wearing, do your research about the job" when you simply want to know what color tie to wear. I think we can give people the benefit of a doubt that they have done their research on the job and not simply relying on the suit to get them hired.

agreed.
and for the interview outfit question, I know it sounds lame, but just look at what the president wears. The tie and shirt combos with the navy suit. Try and use that as a template. Boring maybe, but it is professional as hellllll and makes you look like you bout business. You can't go wrong.

keep it plain and simple. I'd do navy or charcoal suit with a white shirt and normal/dark tie. You can get all GQ/Suit supply after you land the gig.

if these are the hybrid trousers you're talking about, all 3 pairs that I've had got messed up after one wash. Streaks and fades all over the place, and I don't mean like the ones you get on raw denim
Damn hey are
I'll try taking them to the dry cleaners. Are the commuter 511 trousers better?

I've gotten jeans and pants tailored. Jeans I just wanted a smaller leg opening so I just got them tailored from about the knee down. Go for it if you want a more tailored look or better fit. Especially since you said they are a great tailor

Never be shy to ask questions. even with fear of coming off as a newb. You'll never know until you ask. Chances are there are dozens of lurkers with your same question...

Cosign. I got my Levi's 508's tailored to fit more like the 521's they replaced in the lineup and they came out better than the 521's. Slacks are the same. I say go for it.

For some reason my tailor will not taper my RRL denim. He explained it but it really did not make much since to me. Has anyone had any issues with tailors refusing to taper selvedge denim?

Probably due to the selvedge line.
