Job Fair Tips

Before attending a job fair it is advisable to view a 16 minute video called "How to Make a Job Fair Work for You" available in the Career Resource Center. Knowing what to expect and how to approach employers will enable students to use the limited contact time well. Job fair contacts are considered screening interviews to determine if there is mutual interest. When there is a good match additional interviews are scheduled. Always dress for a job fair as you would for an important interview; professional dress is expected.
