If I read her desription right, she wore pretty typical business casual clothes with a bold colour choice.
So, say a guy walks in wearing a typical hipsterish tight casual suit and dyed hair, would that have been the "deal breaker" on an otherwise highly qualified candidate?
I say this having had a boss who repeatedly stated with glee that he would never hire someone who wore a suit to an interview. He was wrong too.

- mreiland 11y agoThat's reality. The truth is you never know. I'm a fairly large man and I've been told on multiple occasions that people were intimidated by me the first time they met me. That affects things like interviews. Fair? Maybe not, but I know I have a tendency to intimidate people so I do my best to adjust for it. That's the way it works, and if someone wants to be in the workforce they have to accept that. I don't mean to sound like that guy, but it's the truth as far as I can see.
