What to Wear for a Video Interview
Video interviews have their own dress code: polished from the waist up, with attention to what reads well on camera. Solid colors, structured necklines, and subtle textures work better on screen than busy patterns or very casual tees. Test the full setup before the call.

Questions, answered.
Do I need to dress formally?
Business casual minimum. The screen flattens and casualizes everything, so lean slightly more formal than the company culture.
What colors work best on camera?
Solid mid-tones: navy, grey, sage, burgundy. Avoid tiny patterns (moiré on screen), stark white (glare), and all-black (flat).
