kellycdb @kellycdb.bsky.social · 14/06/2026Anyways. Tomorrow I go shopping for a “professional” outfit. School has set up mock interviews with real PT clinics for our Professional Issues in PT class. 3 interviews in 1.5 hrs. Sounds exhausting. We are supposed to look nice. Suggestions for where to get such an outfit are welcome. 110
