Career Fair Success: Before, During and After Before: • • • • • •

•

Know yourself and what you want to accomplish by attending the career fair. Choose and try on your outfit to be sure it fits and you’re comfortable. Clean everything and iron out the wrinkles. Study the list of participating employers and research organizations that interest you. Know why you want to work for them. Develop and practice a 10-second introduction for yourself. Include your name, academic interests, class-year and career goals. Prepare specific and general questions to ask. Review the floor plan of the fair and prioritize who you will visit first. Decide who you’re willing to wait in line to meet, even if it means visiting fewer employers. Print extra copies of your resume.

•

Check Duke eRecruiting to see if and when employers hosting events or interviewing on campus.

• •

During: • • • • • •

Prioritize your time. Visit employers on the top of your list ﬁrst. Use your 10-second introduction, eye contact and ﬁrm handshake. Smile! Employers won’t have much time at the fair, so lead with information that you think will interest them most. Make a note of the representative’s name for follow-up. Offer a resume to the recruiter. Be curious. Learn more about options you haven’t previously considered. Gather information and follow up with further questions after the event.

•

Ask about the hiring timeline and process if the organization is not returning to campus for interviews. Take the initiative and engage in meaningful conversation with representatives. They will remember you if they get to know you. Make connections and get advice. Doing so will provide you with excellent resources in your career search and decision-making process.

After: • • •

Follow up! If you promised to send a resume, send it. Send thank-you letters. Include information about your conversation and your interest in the company. Submit your resume on Duke eRecruiting to apply to jobs and internships.
