In February, the Interior Design Professional Advisory Board hosted their annual career prep workshop. This event helps students prepare for the career fair each spring through resume and portfolio feedback sessions and mock interviews.
The workshop is open to all Interior Design juniors and seniors to improve their interview skills and receive guidance from industry professionals. Each year, the workshop alternates between in-person and virtual to give students practice with both formats. This year’s student participants included: Katelyn Bell, CWA Group; Angel Gonzales, Gensler; David Ramsey, Entos Designs; Abbie Seay, Cronan Associates; Christina Harris, GH2; Sara Ketabi, MA+; Julie Hornbeek, REES; Kathryn Kim, Kirksey Architecture; Ave Smith, Studio Plow.
