How do you make the most of a job fair?
There are a lot of cool job fairs around the country. What advice do you have for someone looking to attend....
Dress to impress. Arrive early be sure to have good hygen. Smile with confidence. Have Resume ready with extras. You should allow them to look over ur resume ask them if they have any questions for u about ur resume. By showing them u are serious about the job be sure u keep in contact with them if u are not hired on the spot. If asked questions keep ur answers shot but to the point
SHINE, without being over kill. Dress sharp no matter what, it shows you have respect for yourself, your appearance & the recruiters. SMILE, BE KIND TO ABSOLUTELY EVERYONE, sometimes recruiters are hanging out, observing your behavior. RESUME, & plenty of them. Attaching a thumbnail photo can help the recruiter remember you too. TAKE THE STUFF THEY OFFER like, brochures & business cards with people to follow up with & be sure to FOLLOW UP! . Make the best of the day, challenge yourself to even go to fairs you may notI think you belong. I just got a job I would have never thought I would be considered for, so, you never know. BEST OF LUCK.
Do a little research to see what companies will be present. Pick out your top five and learn a little something about the companies and the open positions. Identify how your skills would be an asset to the company. When you ask questions, it will show knowledge about the industry and/ or company and show your seriousness about working for them versus just getting a job..
