    Well, probably wouldn't fly in the careers I've had, but congratulations on the offer! Looking forward to hearing of your decision and adventures.

    Cheers & Blessings!

    Congrats on the successful kilted interview and job offer. Good on yer, matey.

    No way that would fly in the ultra-conservative midwest automotive industry....

    In my opinion it is the person that makes the interview not the clothes they wear. Congrats and well done.

    Congrats to you!! My boss thought I would have a tough go wearing a kilt for some of the things I do here..like meeting with Directors and giving presentations. I don my kilt, a nice shirt, tie, and usually a vest with gold pocketwatch. I have had no troubles whatsoever.

    In fact, my functions Director has peeked under the table in jest (a woman thank goodness) and then laughed out loud at my red face. She thinks it's great that I am wearing a kilt full time now.

    Some cons and loose ends for sure...have to process it all. Did ask for a formal letter offering the position and salary.

    This was unplanned and on the fly. Not sure I'd have gone to the interview kilted if I had the option....just worked out that it worked. So know other guys wonder...this time a success.
