>This way of looking at it unfortunately suffers from self-reference. Someone who won't meet the dress code won't be looked on as a "really great candidate", so the exercise is undermined at the outset.
Even if that person is well known for being the best of the best? Even if their everyone knows that other companies out there would love to grab them because they are that good?

There are too many subjective factors that enter into such an evaluation, including how that person is dressed. > Even if their everyone knows that other companies out there would love to grab them because they are that good? In human affairs, "good" can never be made completely objective, and human studies are rarely scientific in the classic sense. In this case, "good" might arise from the most superficial evaluation -- for example, just a picture of the candidate in his suit. :)
- Cardeck1 13y agoThe best of the best will always be the exception to any rule in any industry.But the best of the best doesn't care if he gets fired because he will always come on top.So you are asking the wrong question.
