Tips for Success
- Dress it up. To make a lasting impression, iron your button downs and grab your nice jackets.
Use the night as a dress rehearsal for interviews.
- Arrive early. You will get to meet all companies, but if you are most interested in speaking to
one company, get to its table early. Spots fill fast.
- Be enthusiastic. We are all social creatures. Smile; make eye contact; shake hands. Curiosity, kindness,
and good energy are soft skills employers crave.
- Ask questions. Research the companies in advance, and prepare one smart question to ask each company.
The more specific and thoughtful the question, the more professionals will remember
you.
- Print resumes. Bring copies of your resumes. If you strike up a good conversation with an industry
professional, ask if you can share your resume with them.
- Follow up. If an industry expert invites you to follow up, set aside time later in the evening or early the next day to reach out.
When you fully prepare like this, you'll make the most of your time.
