- Bring several printed copies of your resume (around 15-20 copies).
- Research the employers attending the event in advance and prepare intelligent questions. See the list on the "Employers" tab on the Fair in Handshake.
- Practice your 30-second commercial/pitch. Be sure to check out our micro session: Perfect Your Pitch (30-Second Commercial)
Alumni and students from all majors and academic levels are encouraged to attend.
Pssst! Need a breather during the fair? Forgot to bring a snack or a drink? Stop by the Relaxation Space (track level, Room 106) for a reaffirming chat, light refreshments, or for a quiet moment to yourself.
