校友面试，给他买单否？

adameye

校友面试，在starbucks, 请问是否要主动给almuni买单？虽说钱少，但是如果替他付担心有贿赂的嫌疑。不替他付吧，又觉得很不礼貌，中国的老习惯了，不习惯AA制消费。

或者礼貌性地说给他买单？如果他说不需要就不坚持？

另外穿着，如果在cofe里穿着黑色套装，会不会给人拉大距离，没有亲和力的感觉？如果穿套装的话女性穿裙子还是穿裤子有什么区别么？哪个好些？

1. Offer but don't insist.

2. No, you should look professional.  I don't think it matters (skirt verses pants).

Good luck!

If I were you, I would choose to go dutch.  If it's an alumna, please don't offer anything to her.  It might be offensive.  If it's an alunmi, no need, either, because it's neither the eastern tradition nor the western tradition for a lady to offer a drink to a man.  My thinking is if you don't offer anything, it at least won't be offensive.  If you offer sth, it might be an offence.  So, to be on the safe side, go dutch.

Yes, you must look professional.  Don't wear suit which looks cheap.  Of course, skirt looks more professional than trousers.  Well, depends on the wheather.  It's winter now.  More importantly, if it's an alumni, trousers are sufficient to serve.  If it's an alunma, remember not to overdress to look too professional because you don't know how she will dress herself.  Strong contrast in attire sometimes would make things awkward.

Some of my thoughts.  Hope it's helpful.
