When I was at Google, I conducted a technical interview of an engineering candidate who wore a suit exactly once in my time there. I found it confusing and sus, but actually he was very good, and he did get the job. I guess he just didn’t get the memo. (And he was clearly a person who enjoyed dressing up, atypically for an engineer; he wasn’t just doing it for the sake of interviewing.)
