How much can you say about yourself in just 30 seconds?

That may be all the time you have to make a favorable first impression at the job fair. Company reps from your target companies are going to be fielding questions and having conversations with hundreds of eager job seekers during the job fair.

Catch their attention with an expertly crafted Elevator Pitch! The foundation of any good Elevator Pitch is to communicate what you do, what your goals are, and what makes you unique. You want to be memorable, so don’t be afraid to use bold and descriptive vocabulary to paint a colorful picture of who you are professionally. The final key to a truly captivating Elevator Pitch is delivery. You need employers to buy your pitch, but if you can’t convey the words you chose in a confident and heartfelt manner, even the best Elevator Pitch will feel flat and disingenuous.

Like with anything, practice makes perfect! Practice on your friends, family, pets— anyone who will listen. Practice early and often and gather as much feedback as you can from others. That way, when you get to the job fair, you’ll have your Elevator Pitch totally down pat and you can focus on using it to connect with potential employers.

So what’s your pitch sound like? Click “Reply” and submit your Elevator Pitch below to receive feedback, pointers and encouragement from other Jobcasers.

Typically it's called a 30 second commercial, and it is very affective. People should be able to sell themselves in 30 seconds, and by rehearsing, and knowing their facts and format it is not hard. Good Luck

Advertising and Illustration Professional

Hi my name is I’m Debbie, I’m a graphic designer. I noticed you are in the market for a new logo and rebrand (I would tailor this to what they are looking for). Did you know it takes the average person just two seconds to view a company’s logo and decide if they like or trust it? A badly designed logo can do irreversible damage to a company brand! Having worked for over 9 years as a professional graphic designer I have specialized in brand identification and excel at knowing what your audience wants and setting and accomplishing goals promptly to meet those needs.

I provide the individualized attention that your company deserves and I can say that not only were my past clients happy with what I’ve done for them, but my designs have gone on to win several branding awards. I would love to continue the conversation perhaps over coffee and go over my portfolio to see how I can help make sure your logo properly reflects your brand.

I timed myself, it was about 28 seconds (woo hoo)!

I would then hand them a business card and ask for one in return after shaking their hand. I would then email them later that evening or the next day to follow through : ) Feedback is appreciated, thank you!!!
