Career and Job Fairs

job search strategy 4

Career and job fairs offer the opportunity to meet many employers.

Before you attend, be sure you know what employers will be there and what types of jobs they may be offering.

  • Also, it is important to know if the employers will actually be conducting interviews on-site, or if this is simply an opportunity to speak with employers and exchange your resume for their business cards and literature.
  • Dress professionally, bring plenty of copies of your resume, and read some of the advice resources provided below.
