Yeah wear a suit, makes a difference especially since most people will be lazy. Maybe no tie, but I think for a BB you want to.

I don’t think people would take it negatively (trying too hard) and it definitely helps. Especially if others are which a decent proportion do.

However, like most small things it’ll be barely noticeable overall and won’t make or break anything.

 

I didn't wear suits for several interviews I was in during June/July, wanted to appear casual and laid-back. I have already been in the industry for a while, having said that, if you (besides OP) are a student or professional in other industries, wear a suit prob better.

 

I’ve worn a suit each time. Better safe than sorry. I’ve never had anyone make fun of me or anything for wearing it but have had a few people comment that they appreciate that I wore a suit and that it was an extra boost in their eyes. My interviewers have always been in t shirts but better to be more formal than less formal in my opinion

 

Nostrum sit et illum. Et quasi voluptas et qui in natus officia. Fugit accusamus nobis quo ad consequatur iusto. Deleniti ab enim nihil.
