  1. Matthew was recently hired as a sales associate with Unique Fashions. During new employee orientation, Matthew is informed that he will have to shave his beard. Matthew refuses for religious reasons.

    Matthew does not have an actionable claim under Title VII because he should have informed the employer that he could not shave for religious reasons during the interview.

    Unique Fashions will be liable for violating Title VII because Matthew was not asked during the interview if the company's grooming policies violated his religion.

    Matthew has a claim for religious discrimination because Unique Fashions did not offer him another position where he would not come into contact with the public.

    Unique Fashions will not be liable for religious discrimination because Matthew never actually started to work for the company.
