Dress to impress always. Better to be overdressed than underdressed. When they can't decide between two candidates, the appearance of one might show a willingness the other didn't.Hi there,
What do you think is most appropriate for this kind of interview? Suit and tie doesn't feel right given the nature of the role.
Would steel toes, black jeans and a smart shirt work?
Thanks.

Dress as smart as you would for any other interview, the job really doesn’t change that.Hi there,

Off topic.Suit and tie every day, but a casual grey or navy suit would work perfectly.
How you present yourself is key to how they will view your pride and personal responsibility. It also portrays an image of professionalism and shows you are taking the process seriously.
Good luck!
An employer can specify what it wants an employee to wear as part of its policies. If you don't want to wear it then you're free to leave to another employer. It's not an unreasonable request by them.Off topic.
But is anyone else sick of this, “you need to dress right for the role” excrement that seems to be working its way back in lately?
Ie. Murmurings that office staff will need to wear a tie again etc.
I’m fully aware of this… it’s more a question of why employers (and more often local managers) feel the need to do so.An employer can specify what it wants an employee to wear as part of its policies.

The value of a worker shouldn’t be how they’re dressed it should be in the quality of work they produce
If you remove that requirement and tell staff they can wear what they like to work, it wouldn't be long before people started turning up in something inappropriate such as jeans and t-shirt with an expletive printed on the front or suchlike. In my experience, people dressing the same at work as they do at home soon leads to people bringing in behaviours from home into the workplace which is very rarely a good thing.
Slippers are common place in a manual signal box.You’ll be shocked when you find out about signallers then…
