Would you wear a short sleeve dress like the one below to court (for oral argument) without a blazer or is that too revealing? Is a blazer a must?

This is the one and only right answer. Closed toe shoes.

I think it depends on the court and what region of the country you're in. In both the state and federal court by me you would have to wear a jacket.

I would always wear a blazer/suit jacket in court.

I would never appear in court without a jacket.

I would check the local rules in your jurisdiction first. All of the courts I interact with would likely require a blazer with that dress, regardless of how hot it is outside or if the AC is running.

Blazer, you never want to be standing up in court and worrying about your clothes instead of your argument

Don’t know about the jacket protocols for court, but I don’t think the dress itself is too revealing, so long as it’s not too short. Looks fine from photos, but as a 5’8 girlie lots of times things like this can be too short and I worry that if I bend over ppl can see my spanx.

I have this dress. It’s comfortable and long enough for me (I’m a bit under 5’8”) but the material is definitely a stretchy ponte fabric (like the Spanx perfect pants material) so it can read less than business formal depending on the color and how it is styled.

Hi all! I work at a nonprofit and am looking to leave the organization. As I browse available positions in my area, I’m realizing there is a LOT of crossover between my current org and others, for example shared board members, folks who are on our board and employed at one of the institutions I’m interested in, etc.. Is there a way to say “my current org doesn’t know I’m looking, so please treat my interest with discretion” that doesn’t raise red flags? Thanks!

I’m seriously contemplating taking a software development boot camp. For those who hire new software developers, does it make you stand out if you get your certificate from a university instead of a coding academy (like coding dojo or something)? I noticed the universities are a bit more expensive but is it worth the price to have a university on your resume or does it not really matter?
