I have an online video interview with a PwC recruiter, should I wear a suit and tie? I know that’s good form in normal times, but I wasn’t sure if anyone else had a different insight.

PwC is not as formal as it used to be - collared shirt and jacket would be sufficient, but if it doesn’t bother you, it wouldn’t hurt to wear the tie.

This sounds right to me.

I would treat video interviews as formally as real ones. That being said I have had interviewers turn up in hoodies in their backyard so 🤷

I agree, I’m gonna go with suit jacket and a nice collared shirt. Appreciate the insight here.

I quit my previous job approximately 5-6 months ago due to toxic culture and being pressured to commit fraud… I fear hiring managers see that I’ve been out of work for this time and may assume I was fired or laid off. Additionally I’ve had a couple interviews where company “X” interviewers have commented on this and in an effort to not bad mouth my previous employer I’m stuck with a generic answer like I want to take my career to the next level with Company “X.” Any thoughts/advice?

My previous manager would track us by hours daily, made a fuss everytime anything stretched and guilt us for that and the unplanned leave too unless it was COVID. Hinted him a lot of time, this is problematic but apparently he considered it "standard practice for agile".

Now 8/10 teammates have switched within < 1 year of project start (6-7 months with him) which tbh had good work in our opinion and even team was fun to work with even though none of us ever met in person.
