Apron & big knife. Are they union at WF?

You're a lucky man to a meat cutter there. How's your colesterol?

In all seriousness. I would would wear a suit, it is never overkill and shows respect. Bring a pad of paper and pen with a couple bullet points you want to ask, even if you already know your questions.

When they ask you a question, paraphrase or re-say their question into your answer. At the end, make sure to "ask for the job" should you want it. It is never implied you want a job, you have to ask. Say the interviewer's first name often. Everyone likes to hear their name.

If the conversation takes a casual tone, remain professional and do not slip from being that perfect candidate.

Good luck!

Make sure they know you are a "cut" above.

It's Whole Foods...I would wear a tie, but it should be a free-range, organic-polyester tie, with moonstone and hematite accents.

Seriously, I think a suit might be overkill. I would go with a button down shirt and tie with khakis. As stated, take paper and pen for notes and be yourself (not your mean self, but the sweet and kind Darrell we all know and love).
