Elizabeth Hoogs final 3 weeks, I have been to as a number of colleges and as quite a few career fairs. I just finished the Fall Vocation Fair at University of Wisconsin Madison,
win 7 starter upgrade key, and after shaking hands and collecting resumes, I have a stack of candidates who stood out to me and my colleagues as passionate, smart, and will be invited for first round interviews. So what did they do right? Fairs are brutal. You poor students wonder among the booths, weave your way through the crowds, resumes in hand,
office Professional Plus x86, trying to catch the eye of a recruiter. Your job is to communicate your interests and impress me in a very short period of time. Here are a few tips on being noticed (in a good way;-)). Prepared with a resume:
Please come with a resume,
microsoft office 2007 Pro Plus key, preferably 1 page,
discount microsoft office 2010 generator key, 1 side. If you are going to have a 2+ page resume, please staple the two pages. I will often get back to the office with a single, nameless second page. Please make sure the contact information and grad date are up to date on your resume. Do quick research on the companies you plan to visit:
Most Job Service Centers will post which companies will be attending the fairs. By spending a few minutes on each of your targeted companies,

This helps you highlight your skills relevant to those positions while speaking to the recruiter and you stand out as a driven candidate. Knowing what you want is really important to us; it’s often not just about what you can do, but what you want to do. Tell me about yourself, not your resume:
We love the opportunity to speak with students and get beyond the resume. Try to emphasize what you’re passionate about doing and back it up with examples of what you’ve done, but do not read from your resume. Take the opportunity to tell the recruiter about your passions, interests, and how they can be realized at their company and trust that they will look at your resume in depth later. course, skill level, which positions are open or not, and your talent are the primary determining factors, but these might help you showcase your potential match for a given company. I hope these can help you increase your success and that you hear from a lot of companies!
