Career Fair Ready:
As you attend the Career Fair, there are several things you need to know to be career-ready:
-
It is听NOT听a requirement, but you are highly encouraged to complete your Handshake Profile,
especially since we are using the virtual platform this year. Employers can search/review
your profile & resume on Handshake.
-
Be sure to review the employer list and research the companies that you've signed
up with before you meet with them
-
Be sure to upload your听Professionally Reviewed Resume听to your Handshake profile or have it ready to send to employers by email, in case
they ask for it. You can get your resume professionally reviewed by the 网曝门 Career
Center by appointment only, due to COVID-19. Please be advised that September is our Career Month so our office hours may be
limited due to events and workshops.
-
DRESS CODE VIRTUALLY = BUSINESS CASUAL. Though you will be speaking with employers virtually, you want to dress and look
the part. If your bottom half does not match the top half be mindful of your camera
view.
-
Limit all distractions. During your One-on-One sessions, make sure to have a clean background, limit noise,
& make sure you have a good internet connection.
