What to Do During Job Fair
Participating in Job fairs would increase the chance that you would get a job, however, getting to the place or just preparing numerous copies of your resume won’t help. You have to wear presentable clothes, have a striking resume and self-confidence. You also need to have a short speech just in case a company representative you’ve come across would ask about your background.
Job fairs are usually participated by numerous companies, which you might get overwhelmed. You should have the list of target companies to submit your resume assuming you haven’t got any working experience. Otherwise, if you don’t have a plan of changing your career, focus on companies that offer jobs similar to your previous.
Bring a pen, notepad, drinking water, crackers in case you get hungry, an extra shirt, and most of all prayers for guidance.
