I am a creative designer and have an upcoming interview in the broadcast industry. Should I wear a sports coat dark jeans and a dark shirt or go with the conventional suit

I'd go with the suit.
Good luck.
A nice dark blue suit - power suit. Maybe a silly tie to tie in with the industry that you are applying for... not too silly though.

Drive by the company at the beginning or end of the work day (when folks are entering and leaving the building.) Check out what the guys are wearing. Then dress up one notch - if everyone else is in the sport jacket and trousers, you wear the suit. If they're in jeans and tees, you do the sport jacket thing. If they're in shorts and flip-flops, wear khakis and a nice polo shirt.
p.s. I've interviewed folks who were dressed far too casually for the interview but nevertheless impressed everyone with their knowledge, personality, and experience. While you're dressing up the outside, don't forget that it's who you are inside that really matters. Good luck!

A suit with a creative twist. An interesting tie, belt or shoes can show that you are not as conservative as the suit you are wearing. It can also show that you have a creative mind with a touch of class.

Never wear jeans on an interview. I'd go with business casual. dress pants and dress shirt and tie.
