How to prepare
A short plan for this career fair, based on its format, audience and details.
Before the fair
- Register on the organizer's page ahead of time and keep your confirmation email.
- Check the official page for the list of employers attending, then pick 3 to 5 you most want to meet.
- Know your co-op or internship dates and your graduation date. Employers will ask.
- Put your portfolio or GitHub link on your resume, and add a QR code so employers can open it on the spot.
- Practise a 30-second introduction: who you are, what you do well and the kind of role you want next.
- Update your resume so the top third shows the roles and skills you want to talk about at this fair.
At the fair
- Arrive by 10:45 a.m., about 15 minutes before the start, when lines are short and employers are fresh.
