Career Week is just around the corner! Just think, employers are coming to campus to meet you- don't be a no show to your own party.
Are you prepared to network, and learn about all the opportunities waiting for you? Here are some pointers for attending Career Week Activities:
- Come dressed to impress鈥攚ould you wear sweats to formal dance? There is nothing worse than showing up under-dressed for an event, if you have questions or concerns about what to wear, check out our Professional Attire page.
- Bring your resume鈥攕howing up to a Career Fair without a resume is like showing up to the event without a ticket to get in. Need help with your resume? Check out our Resume Information and templates
- Come with some questions in mind鈥攖ake a minute to scan the employer list and google them! Recruiters are here to get to know you in a relaxed setting, take advantage. Not sure what to say? Learn about Elevator Speeches here.
Thinking to yourself, 鈥�I鈥檓 only a freshman,鈥� or 鈥�I鈥檓 only a sophomore,鈥� 鈥�I鈥檓 not ready for this鈥� Career Week won鈥檛 serve my needs at all.鈥�
WRONG!! Employers and recruiters LOVE to see young underclassmen at Fairs and Events. It shows that you have initiative and that you鈥檙e taking a pro-active interest in your future.
