Dress Code

The general dress code for WE19 is business or business casual for sessions, and business for the Career Fair job seekers. Best rule of thumb for the Career Fair? If it’s something you would wear for an evening out, don’t wear it to the Career Fair.
Tours are generally business casual or casual, but note that most technical tours require slacks, long-sleeved shirts, and closed-toe shoes. Pick garments that are multi-use (i.e., black pencil skirts, blouses, sweaters, jackets).
TIPS:

• Dress Code: The WE19 dress code ranges from business casual to professional. If you are attending the career fair as a jobseeker, you may want to pair your skirt or pair of slacks with a professional blouse and blazer.
• When attending sessions, we recommend dress slacks or khaki pants, neatly pressed, with a matching blouse or long-sleeved, buttoned solid shirt, sweater, or blazer.
• Shoes should be clean/polished.
• Awards Banquet attendees usually dress in business formal or formal.
• Celebrate SWE will be your place to shine! Beautiful dresses, makeup and hair accessories are always welcome on our WE17 “red carpet”.

Briefcase Essentials 

• Laptop for personal use if you require one. (Note that most presentation rooms have laptops for our speakers).
• Cell phone/tablet to download the mobile app (available in August), play our mobile app game and complete surveys.
• Note paper and pen for taking hand-written notes at sessions.
• Business cards and resume copies—especially if you are job seeking.
• An “all-purpose” bag for any extras you may pack.
• First aid supplies, aspirin and a sewing kit.
• Any other supplies that you normally use at home and would provide comfort while traveling.
