I’m interviewing on Monday and the HR rep said the office is “casual so to wear whatever I feel comfortable in” ...how would you interpret that? Obv. don’t look sloppy but also an open range here...

Wear what you normally wear to work, but dress it up a bit more. Nicer shoes, nicer shirt, the fancy jeans, etc.

Suit. No tie if male.

I’ve got a wide-leg black jumpsuit that I pair with wedge booties — it’s professional, but not too conservative and TOO casual. Plus I’m comfortable. Make sure you’re comfortable and best of luck!!

A long dress or midi skirt would also work. If the company is known for being creative, you could also wear something colorful (I did for my interview with my current company)

Black sheath dress with ankle boots is my go to. Alternatively, if this co is really, really casual, blouse and black jeans.

M or f? If m, wear button up at least

I’m early 30s so probably more old school, but I wouldn’t wear jeans to an interview. Black midi shift dress with black boots is my go to. Blazer and pencil skirt when I’m feeling fancier.

Suit, no tie. Pocket square to dress it up.

Velvet sweatsuit.

Hot dog suit.

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us. She starts work at 4:30am and leaves around 2:30pm, but she still expects us to stay until 6pm and work on the weekends! She gives us really long shifts and doesn't give us much time for breaks. And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?

Hi everyone, I am getting ready for a job interview, and need to create a media plan. I was hoping someone can help me with the next task: basically, I need to create inventory recommendation based on past performance. What I am very confused about is that they gave me Booked Impressions (=4M), but in the task it says I should assume there is unlimited inventory. Am I supposed to use this 4M only to calculate spend, ROAS, etc., but can actually have unlimited allocated impressions? Thank you!
