Do I have to wear a suit jacket on an interview?
I have an interview tomorrow (yay!) for a big company and I don't have any suits. My last job was pretty casual. Should I go try to find one today (if so, where) or can I just wear nice pants and a button down collared shirt? Thanks!!

definitely!
ETA: wear a sleeveless shell and then put the jacket on when you get inside the building - it's gonna be HOT!

I agree. I used to find great suits at Lord & Taylor or Ann Taylor.

yes - without a doubt!
Good luck!!
ETA - I've had luck at Macy's lately....lots of good sales on business attire. Go for a traditional suit - and they have good blouses too.

Absoluetly!
Go to the Limited, Ann Taylor, Lord & Taylor, Banana, Bloomies, etc. Invest in a nice black pansuit.
