# 4359 Tied to a Tie?
Question
May one wear Bigdei Shabbos for a job interview in 9 days? For a bachur even a tie is a Shabbos beged (clothing). May he wear it to the interview? Is it necessary to don the tie and Shabbos jacket just before the interview and remove right after?
Answer
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that when it is necessary for Parnassah in case of real monetary need it can be done. However it should be removed immediately after the interview.
Horav Dovid Pam and Horav Aharon Miller Shlit’a opinions are similar.
