Career Closet

The Career Closet is located inside the University Career Center in 150 Wiggins Complex.  It is open Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm.  We accept walk-ins; however, you may schedule an appointment through Hire Red Raiders or by calling our office at 806-742-2210.

The Career Closet is open to current students in need of business professional outfits for upcoming interviews, career fairs, networking events and other professional development opportunities.  This is a FREE service.

Students may select up to five (5) items per semester.  For example, a suit is counted as two items: pants and a jacket.  Adding a shirt, belt, and tie would complete a basic outfit, totaling five items. Our service is based solely on donations from the community, so we cannot guarantee all styles and sizes will be available.  

Call our office at 806.742.2210 if you have any questions about navigating Hire Red Raiders.

We appreciate your generosity!
