The Career Connections Style Show will take place this Wednesday at 7 p.m. in the SUB ballroom.

At the show, students model the appropriate attire to wear to job interviews, business lunches and dinners, charity events, banquets and more.  At this event, the sponsors are aiming to prepare students for the real world.

“First impressions are very important. Showing up to an interview wearing basketball shorts and a t-shirt will not impress anyone,” Roslynn Pogue, director of Career Connections, said.

“The style show is going to be a lot of fun, and most importantly, a great learning experience.” In a segment of the show students will have a chance to ask etiquette questions. Seth Hall will be one of the people opening up the floor for questions.

The audience can cheer for the models as they walk out. Karlynsia Mack is one of the models in the show.

“The style show helped me know how to dress for my internship interviews. I actually received compliments on my outfits,” Mack, a senior health care marketing and management major, said.

The style show is free and open to the public.

This is the third annual show and is hosted by the Office of Career Connections and Experiential Education.
