Explanation of Solution

Title VII of Civil Rights Act forbids any kind of discrimination, intentional and unintentional, at the workplace. In a case of intentional discrimination, the person must show a prima facie case of discrimination by the employer to the Court while unintentional discrimination can be inferred from the practices and procedures of the employer.

In the given case as A does not have enough evidence to prove intentional discrimination as she was not discriminated at any stage, she can bring her claim under unintentional discrimination.
