By doing your homework, you will be in the best position possible to make a good impression. Marketing yourself:
These are the things that company/organization representatives will remember. They may ask your name, and take notes, etc. They will be looking for your resume when it is processed through their recruitment site. Of course, the opportunities will be there to present a highly-polished resume, so take lots of copies and keep them neat and accessible in a folder.
Don't be afraid to ask:
Keep notes on your visits and discussions:
Job Fairs are still one of the stepping stones towards career success...Overall, job fairs are about making an impression, not an application. Making an impression is also what organizations are trying to do. They want to attract quality talent to apply for employment and create a mind set among students that their organization is an employer of choice. Sometimes the result are immediate; sometimes they are longer term. Use Job Fairs as one of the tools in your basket to secure career-related employment. By taking advantage of the resources and connections at a job fair, you are building your job search strategy from a sound foundation.
