Tips for Fair Attendees

• Research which companies will be attending the career fair. Be familiar with what they do, their culture, and what jobs/internships they have open (use Handshake to see which employers are attending).
• Prepare a resume and print several copies on quality resume paper. Have at least two copies of your resume for each company you plan to visit with.
• Dress appropriately – business formal preferred; but no less than business casual.
• Ask for a business card or write down the representative’s name and contact information.
• Career Fair Etiquette.
• Tips for Networking.
