Very good point. And so was the one about wearing pants.
I recently had to choose between two very strong candidates for a position. One girl wore shorts into the interview and although equally qualified and terrific in her interview, I just couldn't get past the shorts so hired the other candidate. 2 weeks later I needed to add a position and called that girl in for another interview. This time she was dressed properly and I hired her on the spot (after explaining our dress code and policies). I'm glad too because she is sharp. Both of them are extremely talented and I got pretty lucky getting them both.
