Is there a dress code?

All Schwabbies are encouraged to 'dress for your day.' But what does that mean? To ensure you’re dressed appropriately, we advise that you make outfit choices based on the activities and interactions you’ll engage in.

Here’s a quick example:

• Meeting with executives or clients? Wear business attire, such as a suit and dress shoes.
• Business as usual? Go casual - wear nice jeans or slacks paired with a button-up or polo shirt and clean sneakers.
