What do you tell them?

Hi guys. I was just wondering if anyone goes to a job fair if they already have a job? I know that sounds stupid, but lately, the job I do have the hours are being cut back and I need a second one. I am thinking about going to the job fair in Boston this month because I am having a hard time paying my rent. I am just not making enough anymore. So I guess my question is, what do I tell the company when they ask me about it? I am nervous!

What if I don't know anymore?

Can I go to a job fair if I have no idea what I want to do? I am kind of down lately and everyone else seems to be getting jobs, BUT me. Sometimes it's like what the hell am I doing wrong? Just feeling lost. Not really sure if I should go.

Are YOU ready?

Preparation is so important for a job fair.

Check out these tips to make sure you are ready for the job fair in Boston on June 14th!

-Lay out your clothing the night before. This way you don’t have to scramble trying to find something in the morning. Check to make sure it's clean and wrinkle-free. Check out some tips on what to wear to the interview [here] (https://www.jobcase.com/conversations/60d77b2f-6640-5331-8816-dca310ec58bf?from=https%253A%252F%252Fwww.jobcase.com%252Fcommunity).

-Grab those resumes. Pack at least 50 copies and place them in a folder, or notebook and then tuck them away in a bag. Just make sure your resumes are easily accessible when an employer requests a copy, so you don't have to go digging for it!

-Eat a good breakfast the morning of. It’s true what they say, breakfast IS the most important meal of the day. It will fuel your brain/body first thing and last until lunchtime! When in doubt bring a snack if you think you will be hungry.

-Go to bed early. Even if you’re a night owl, put on those pj’s and climb into bed early enough the night before so you get a full 8 hours. You will look rested tomorrow and feel much calmer and focused.

-Get to the fair early. Plan how you will get there and how long it will take. If you can, arrive a little bit early to calm your nerves and take a lap around the room.

-Practice your pitch a few times that morning. Whether it’s in the shower or on the ride over, say it a few times so you build up that confidence! What will you say in 20-30 seconds to grab that employer’s attention?

-Know what that company’s mission/culture. If you haven’t researched it yet, take some time to see what they are all about and jot down some notes! Remember, your pitch should be tailored to what YOU bring to that company based on what they do.

-Nervous and not sure what to say to break the ice? Practice a few of these [conversation starters] (https://www.jobcase.com/conversations/6d46f61d-c53b-5ec5-9d7c-69cc61713f6a) to get things rolling.

Make sure you register for the Boston Job Fair [here] (https://www.jobcase.com/ulem-boston-job-fair)!

Wishing you the best of luck in finding a new job : )
