If you are Goldman, Citi, or any other big player......I'd say no especially if you are just starting. You need to show up conservative and by the end of the week understand what the understood dress code is.Originally Posted by Antonio Centeno
it's an internship with one of the big players. i guess i'll wear my repp ties to work for now. then i'll decide if club ties are appropriate.

This seems a wise plan.
I wonder why these ties got a lot more support on AAAC.

Wear the currency tie after a good month or so. Most will get a good laugh at it.

In my grad school's career development programs we were consistently told not to wear club-style ties to interviews. I would assume that this advice should also carry over into early employment. Once you've got your bearings at your office, feel free to wear any of the above ties if you're comfortable with them.

Generally, in traditional business environments, for low-level employees such ties are not a good idea. But every workplace is different.

Not really. Nobody will care as long as you don't wear something really ridiculous. Those all look fine.

If that currency tie is not appropriate for working in finance, when who the hell is supposed to wear it?Originally Posted by shoreman1782
Yeah, it is a bit corny, but if you serious about money or stocks then wear it. I think that if you are a boss or a senior employee then you can get away with it. If it was up to me then I would wear it, at least for a day

I'm going to buck the trend here.
Emblematic ties are appropriate only if they are part of a school uniform or if you are a sporting member in formal team dress.
Outside of these environments I think emblematic ties are positively stuffy and simply repulsive. Sorry, it's just my opinion but I felt it had to be said.
