TIPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL JOB FAIR:

* Refine your resume until it represents you in the best possible light; bring many copies of your resume. * Practice your 30 seconds sales pitch. * Research the companies in advance; know all you can about their products and services. * Dress for success -- either a business suit or coat and tie are recommended for men; equivalent attire for women. * Get a copy of the Employer Directory at the registration table. Read it. * Project a professional image at all times. * Be positive/upbeat. * Meet with all the companies -- you never know where the "right" opportunity may be. * Keep your options open. Stay flexible. * Be respectful of the recruiter's time -- provide a brief, accurate glimpse of who you are, what you're looking to do, your geographic preference, and when you will be available to start work. * Defer questions about salary requirements until later in the interview process. * Thank the recruiter for giving you the opportunity to present your qualifications. Ask about next steps.

DRESS:

Business attire is recommended -- dress as you would for a job interview. Duty uniform is also acceptable attire.
