Career Fairs

For Students

The Career Fair will be an excellent opportunity to enhance your networking skills, meet with professionals in a wide array of fields, obtain invaluable information early in your job search, and learn more about the work world and potential areas of employment. Check out the list of registered employers when registration begins and start researching them.

Meet employers, make an impression, get the job

There are many ways to network and make an impression with employers throughout the year. Be prepared to meet virtually or in person with employers through lunch and learns, presentations and interviews in a whole new way. A combination or hybrid of virtual and in person career fairs and events will be the new norm.

Tips for students to get the most out of the career fair

Before the event

Prepare your resume and have a friend proofread it for typos.
View the list of attending companies.
Research the companies that you are interested in and the positions offered online.
Prepare intelligent, informed questions in advance for those employers that interest you. This will allow you to present yourself as well informed and will capture the employer's attention.

How to prepare

Have your resume with you so your information is available
Be clean and neat in appearance

During the event

Smile and introduce yourself when approaching the employer! A positive attitude is very important.
Indicate your year and area(s) of study as well as what your career interests are
Maintain good eye contact.
If the conversation goes well ask about the next step in the recruitment process.
Thank employers for their time before you leave.
