So we had 4 straight days of 100 degrees / 100% humidity... brutal

artist's print tshirt
h&m shorts
vans prison issue

then this is from the climax of the heat wave - the worst torrential hail storms I have ever seen in my life.

BR long sleeve
5ep x SF
chucks

I'm not joking about these storms - the hail I was able to photograph here was on the smaller side. It went on for about 10 minutes and piled up against the side of my house.

Some food for thought here. EGW doesn't seem to agree with you guys, but
maybe it's a senior vs. entry-level divide. One thing that confuses me is why the OLDER people wouldn't want you to dress traditionally - unless you mean the jeans-wearing boomer generation. Which would make sense. Unfortunately, there's no way of knowing what the tone of an office is before you enter it. I guess I could ask when they call about interviews....

Today:

and bonus out of the light shot from last night

I don't think you should listen to the "haters" with respect to how you are dressed. I think you look pretty sharp and professional.

However, I do strongly suggest a haircut and maybe consider shaving the facial hair for a while. You don't need to have a run of the mill corporate haircut, but if you may want to clean it up a little bit, maybe put some product in it. Otherwise I think you look good and I'd definitely hire you based on the clothing.

I agree with EGW pretty much. However, interviews can be a touchy situation. A lot of times you have no idea what your boss is going to be like or who is interviewing you. One guy I work for is just not a clothes guy. He's very well dressed an I know he respects that I always, always, always wear at least a tie and blazer; however, I think he rolls his eyes sometimes when I have the stuff like a bright pocket square or flashy cufflinks.
