Career Closet

Welcome to HCCC’s Career Closet!

The Career Closet strives to serve Hudson County Community College students by providing business professional wear to students for internships, job interviews, and other professional opportunities. We have a variety of sizes and items including full suits, shirts, blouses, dresses, skirts, pants/slacks, and accessories appropriate for the workplace. All items are FREE and meant for students to keep!

The Closet does accept donations and is by appointment only.

Appointments must be made for the Coordinator and donor to go through the items together. If the items do not meet our standard, you will have to take it back. 

Donation Criteria for the Career Closet:

  • Clothing must be professional (no jeans, t-shirts, sweatshirts, sweaters, sneakers, etc.)
  • Clothing must be brand new or gently used – this means no stains, tears, missing buttons, etc.
  • Examples of clothing we do accept: Business or evening-wear dresses; suits; business-length skirts; blouses; blazers; long-sleeve button-down shirts; peacoats; ties; purses/messenger bags; costume jewelry (that is appropriate for business-wear); shoes (heels, flats, and men’s dress shoes)

If you have items that meet this standard, please email Rehab Bensaid, rbensaid4586FREElive.HUDSONCOUNTYCOMMUNITYCOLLEGE to schedule an appointment.
