- Share your passion, interests, and goals
- Share your passion and goals with the representative from the potential company or organization you’re interested in. Companies who look for the perfect hire will sense the energy and passion in the right individual for their organization.
- Initiate conversations
- With a busy career fair, an employer will only remember so many names. Be outgoing! Ask them what led them to choose their specific field or careers. Request the employers for their name cards and contact information, or leave your resume or contact information with them. If you don’t know what questions to ask, brainstorm ideas with friends before going!
- Wear professional clothing attire
- Wearing something too casual shows a lack of interest. Be stunning! Dress as if you are going on a date, or an interview.
