Virtual interviews and casual work environments are making it harder for job candidates to know what to wear to interviews. Career advisers long recommended polished suits and other types of business attire. But that's no longer the safe choice when the interviewers may show up dressed in hoodies and shorts. Stylists say a well-tailored suit still is the default for executive roles and jobs in fields such as law and finance. Beyond those areas, it's worth exploring an organization’s culture in advance. A hiring manager or recruiter can answer questions about the dress code. Getting it right, or wrong, could affect your comfort, confidence and performance during an interview.

A labor union and two female prison employees filed a lawsuit Tuesday accusing a U.S. civil rights agency of unlawfully halting their sexual harassment case as part of wider order to indefinitely suspend proceedings in all federal-sector class claims. The lawsuit claims that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has ordered an indefinite suspension of all federal-sector class complaints pending before the agency’s administrative judges, who handle discrimination complaints from federal workers in process that is different than private sector workers. The women, correctional officers at a Louisiana federal prison, have a pending complaint against the Federal Bureau of Prisons.

Brianna Turner said on social media that her former team, the Indiana Fever, fired a male employee last season for sexual harassment. Turner, who was with Indiana last season but now plays for the Las Vegas Aces, also said Fever players were encouraged not to discuss the firing. Turner didn't provide details of the firing in her posts on X. The Fever put out a statement Thursday that didn’t directly address Turner’s comments but noted that the organization doesn't comment on personnel matters involving former employees.
