Description

Want to be Career Fair ready? G.R.I.T. will make you GREAT! Come spend free hour getting the information that will help you before, during and after the Career Fair to make and keep connections! We'll talk environment and set up, what to bring and what to leave at home, and how to make the most of the experience, no matter if you're actively seeking a job or internship, or you just want to know what a Career Fair is like! 

You'll get practical tools to help you maximize your resume for the big day, practice your elevator pitch to network effectively, and learn about how to follow up to keep those great connections. Come ready to share, learn and interact with each other as we all build our GRIT to make it a GREAT Career Fair!
