Is there a dresscode?

In general, we say "Come as you are!". To get informed about companies informally you don't have to wear a suit. Neat and clean clothes should be enough. If you want to apply for a certain internship or a job, you should probably at least wear a shirt or a blouse and proper trousers. Here your knowledge of the industry is asked: Computer scientists often arrive with a shirt and trainers, whereas economists mostly dress more neatly and properly, often with a tie, a jacket and more elegant shoes.
