The career fair is an opportunity to make progress in your job or internship search. Remember, employers are attending because they are looking to hire!
Contacts and connections can be crucial for landing a job or internship. Take advantage of the networking opportunities at the career fair. It is your chance to meet face to face with employers and make a great first impression!
The career fair is a unique opportunity to gain exposure to a wide variety of industries (government, nonprofit, corporate) and see which ones suit your skill sets and interests. Learn about different career paths. Ask your career questions directly to employers.
The career fair is a great way to practice your introduction to employers, your “elevator pitch” and build confidence in your approach and how you present your professional image.
WHY YOU SHOULD PREPARE:
Because there are so many available resources on campus that can help you! For example, attend a workshop at Advising & Career Services. ACS offers a number of FREE workshops such as “Introduction to Interviewing”, “Networking 101”, “Internships Overview & Search Tips”, “Writing Resumes & Cover Letters”, “Using LinkedIn for Your Career or Job Search”, and more! Click here to view our calendar to find a workshop happening soon!
Or, you can schedule a 1:1 appointment with a Career Counselor to get more in depth about your career development goals and job search! For School of Business students, and Maseeh College of Engineering & Computer Science students, additional career services are offered through your respective schools.
Make the most out of the career fair. Employers will notice a thoughtful and well prepared candidate when they meet one! It is worthwhile to make your interactions with employers count. For more information on PSU’s career fairs, click here to see our website.
