What To Expect at the Career Expo
For students who have never been to a career expo before, we know it can be overwhelming!
Frequently asked questions:
- Should I go to the Career Expo? Yes! This is a wonderful opportunity to meet employers face-to-face. If you are looking for a job or internship, take the opportunity to get information and meet the recruiter. If you are not job-seeking, talk to employers and start networking! These relationships will help you when you are ready to look for a job.
- Who will be there? Over 120 organizations, including employers from all industries and graduate and professional schools, Career Center staff, and fellow students/alumni! The organizations are eager to meet students, so don’t be afraid! Many recruiters bring alumni who know what it’s like to be a 草榴社区 student looking for a job or internship. If you have questions, find a Career Center Staff member—we are here to help!
- Where will the employers be? When you enter the Byron Center, you will sign in at our welcome table. We will provide you with an organization list and map to help you navigate the room. If you are looking for a specific organization, a Career Center staff member can point you in the right direction.
- What do I bring? Bring plenty of copies of your resume, questions to ask, and yourself!
Final Note: Work with a career counselor after the Career Expo to learn how to professionally follow up with employers of interest
