IBD Superday - General Presentation Advice

About to enter my second year (sophomore) and have an NYC IBD superday where I’m going in person to the office. This is my first time interviewing outside of Zoom / call, so asking for best practices. Obviously plan on wearing my best suit. Besides that, would bringing a folder of 5-7 extra resume copies suffice? I’ve seen some people also mention bringing a note pad and a pen but would that be necessary in this context? Any other suggestions or recommendations are welcome.

Wear a good suit, match you shoe color to you belt color, solid color tie, and if you have a watch wear it. Bring a nice notepad (leather cover if possible) and a good pen. Resume won’t be necessary from my experience but it may vary. Don’t bring a backpack or anything into the interview - leave it at the reception area so you don’t look awkward carrying too much stuff and only bring what you need into the interview. Obviously shower and cleanly shaven with a business appropriate haircut. Firm handshake and smile as much as possible. Be respectful and most importantly - just relax and put yourself in the moment. Good luck
