    93 Comments

    2017 Update: Check out our latest discussion on the best interview makeup! Today’s reader mail is another request for interview advice, this time in terms of makeup… I have several on campus interviews for 1L summer jobs the first week in February.

    Updated11/01/2018
    64 Comments

    Reader Mail – Pearl Necklaces and Younger Women

    Updated11/29/2024
    28 Comments

    A while ago, we got this intriguing e-mail from a reader: As a late graduation present, I was considering asking my folks for a classic strand of pearls.
