Employers love to meet students who are already familiar with their company. Find out who’s coming to the Mega Fair and research employers of interest, starting with their company Web site.
Dress like a professional, especially if you are a junior or senior. That means you should wear a clean, well-fitting, conservative, color-coordinated suit with closed-toe shoes. For more tips, check out this handy guide.
Bring at least 10 copies of your resume, printed on high-quality paper and tucked neatly inside a portfolio or folder. Perfect your resume by stopping by for 1:1 assistance during Express Hours (Monday-Thursday, 1-3 p.m., 7800 York Rd., Ste. 206) and accessing convenient, online samples and resources.
