My dress code when interviewing at any company: never dress better than the CEO's profile photo on the company website.

  It depends on the position and depends on the company/locale. It's very possible in Silicon Valley that you get interviewers judging engineering candidates because they dressed up too much. [Have to have that culture fit, you know.] At most companies, and certainly for non-engineering roles, it almost certainly doesn't hurt to dress up a bit and is considered normal.

    At most companies, the CEO's profile picture will have be in a suit, so the heuristic still works.

      Exactly. If the CEO dresses in a T-shirt and jeans, there's a _very_ high chance everyone else would be dressing the same or less formal.
