Are you a boy or a girl? I just had an interview for Georgetown last week at Starbucks and I wore a burgundy skirt, white button down, and a pair of lace-up heeled booties! Like you I was so nervous about what to wear, but no matter what website /article I found, I felt like it wasn’t specific enough. In the end the interviewer was so nice and laid-back, and I think I may have worried for nothing:) My interview was just a conversation and most of the “common interview questions” I found online never came up in our conversation! Just relax and be yourself!

Since my interview was at 11 on a Saturday morning at Starbucks (a.k.a. rush hour for coffee-lovers) I got there 30 minutes early so that I could find an empty table, clean it off, order a drink, and be comfortable by the time the interviewer showed up. One tip: coffee shops can be a little noisy so make sure you’re engaged with your interviewer and not looking around at all the interesting characters that Starbucks attracts:) I know I was so freaked out beforehand, so let me know if you have any questions at all!
