But this guy came in a complete suit.Hmm there's one thing I don't get about the US, it's the "dress for the interview just a bit better than would be expected for normal work". In Australia it's pretty much expected that if you go for a formal interview, you wear a suit, at least for programmers. I suspect the same is true for most professions.
Where I'm at wearing a suit for a programmer position is standard practice. Maybe its because I'm in the Mid-Atlantic region and we tend to be more conservative business wise. The US is a big country and each region has its own cultural idiosyncrasies.
