Interviewing for full-time positions at the Fair

The web site will indicate whether an organization plans to interview on site. Not all recruiters interview. Historically about 1/3 do, but this also depends on the job market.

1. Candidates seeking interviews will target employers of interest, enter the fair at 10:00 am and approach interviewing organizations early on. Conduct research about employers of interest prior to attending. Be able to articulate why your interests, skills and experience match their identified needs.
2. You'll be given an interview schedule to fill out and return to fair organizers should you schedule interviews. This comes in handy when people misplace their appointment sheet and need a reminder.

Resume consultation: Career services holds resume review drop-in hours Monday through Thursday, noon to 1 p.m., and on Wednesday evenings from 5 to 7 p.m.
