Career Wardrobe Referral Membership


2008-09 Service List

Dressing Program

Participants receive one-on-one assistance from our trained personal shoppers, volunteers and staff with a background in human resource, image consulting and fashion. Each woman is eligible for three free outfits which include:

  • Matching suit with blouse/shirt.
  • Four additional pieces (“separates”) to combine into a week’s worth of work outfits.
  • Accessories to compliment the outfit: shoes, stockings, scarf, handbag, jewelry

Client Help Desk

Clients can have their resume critiqued and ask questions about the work environment of industry professionals. We match participants with one of our Career Leaders for mentoring and assistance via the phone/email.

Mock Interview Sessions

Participants receive constructive feedback to learn how they can strengthen their interview savvy. This opportunity is available on an individual basis as an add-on after clients utilize the Client Help Desk. In addition, Referral Partners may request a Career Wardrobe representative for on-site Mock Interview Sessions for 5-10 participants.

Gateway to Success Seminars

Our monthly signature personal and professional development seminars designed to help participants adapt and succeed in the business environment – empowering men and women new to the workforce with practical life skills.
* Suit Up!  Preparing for Job Search Success Workshops
The Career Wardrobe Suit Up! workshops help participants put their best foot forward for their interview. At the end of the workshop they will know how to develop a style suitable to the workplace and their personality and learn how to project a positive self-image. (Additional Fee)
