Question about a suit for a interview and a red tie.

I have a 5th and final interview coming up for a very nice position and company I am hoping to land. For many years, I've always thought a red tie would look nice but... well.. I'm a bit style challenged. My last few suits I've went to mens warehouse and let the sales people pretty much pick one out for me. So I was just wondering would a red tie be OK for suit regarding a panel interview and hoping to get some suit recommendations based around that. I was thinking something black but not plain.

Unlikely to be suitable but what position and way type of company?

You've had 4 other interviews with this company. What have you worn for those interviews? Buying a new suit makes little sense at this point IMO. If anything, get another shirt/tie for an existing suit. Having sales associates help you is a good idea. The last thing you want to do in MOST interviews is have some type of dynamic fashion statement. Modern and classy is what you're after. Take an existing suit back to the store and get a new shirt/tie. At the 5th interview you're not going to win the job with a splashy fashion statement. Make sure everything is pressed nicely - shirt & suit. And, make sure your shoes are nicely polished. That's it.

Senior Service Desk manager with Enterprise holding. I've had two face to face interviews and two over the phone. This one will be the last with several people on a panel.

Don't buy a black suit......

As stated, just wear a different/new shirt and tie and you should be ok.

Can't go wrong with blue/ navy in any case.
