Career Fair Tips

Before the Career Fair

Participate in professional development events

Update your resume.

Research the companies ahead of time.

Check what companies will be at the fair and research your top choices by reviewing their website, news stories, press releases, and social media pages. The employer list can be found in the event details in Handshake. At a minimum, you should know what the company does before you talk to them.

Note: Companies hire for many different positions, not just positions directly associated with their services. For example, Hospitals and Schools need IT, HR, and Communications Specialists, not just nurses and teachers.

Prepare thoughtful questions.

Practice a brief introduction.

Practice your interviewing skills.

Dress professionally.
