This will also open the time up for another student to participate.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Maintain eye contact and smile.<\/strong>&nbsp;Look at the screen and try to really listen to what the employer has to say.

Taking down a few key notes will also make it easier for you to follow up after the fair.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Make an impression<\/strong><strong>.&nbsp;<\/strong>To build personalized connections, we recommend you select to show yourself via video if possible, particularly in one-on-one sessions.

Otherwise, it may be difficult to find later.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>What to Do After the Fair<\/summary>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Send thank you emails to employers you met<\/strong><strong>.<\/strong>&nbsp;Even if you are not actively seeking an opportunity, you may want to keep in touch with any recruiters with whom you had a productive or positive conversation. They will appreciate the professional courtesy. In your email, mention something you found interesting or learned from your conversation. If you are interested in being considered for a position, say so, and reiterate the qualities you could bring to the organization.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Connect with recruiters on LinkedIn.<\/strong>&nbsp;Immediately following the fair, you should also connect with any employers you\u2019ve met with on LinkedIn. Remember to add a personal note in your connection request, reminding them who you are. Build your professional network!&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Apply for posted internships or jobs.<\/strong>&nbsp;If you are seeking opportunities, apply for internships or jobs on Handshake and company websites. Once you\u2019ve applied, follow up by email to let the recruiter know you\u2019ve submitted an application. This is appropriate before the standard two-week application follow-up, because you already have made a personal connection.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Helpful Links to Handshake Virtual Career Fair Support<\/summary>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>VIDEO:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/support.joinhandshake.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/360051394454?_ga=2.211438492.828514621.1598875636-1538705826.1588177112\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to Register and Sign Up for the Virtual Career Fair&nbsp;<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ARTICLE:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/support.joinhandshake.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/360051394454?_ga=2.211438492.828514621.1598875636-1538705826.1588177112\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to Sign Up for and Manage Virtual Fair Sessions&nbsp;<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ARTICLE:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/support.joinhandshake.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/360051037914-Handshake-Video-Requirements-Troubleshooting-Students-\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Handshake\u2019s Video Requirements &amp; Troubleshooting for Students&nbsp;<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ARTICLE:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/support.joinhandshake.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/218692648-How-to-Upload-a-New-Document\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to Upload a New Document to your Handshake profile&nbsp;<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ARTICLE:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/support.joinhandshake.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/218692638-How-to-Change-Your-Student-Profile-Privacy-Setting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to Change Your Privacy Settings in Handshake&nbsp;<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ARTICLE:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/support.joinhandshake.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/115015978207\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Work Authorization Settings in Handshake&nbsp;<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>How to Prepare for an In-Person Fair<\/summary>\n<p>Preparing in advance of the Career Fair will help you build confidence in presenting yourself and navigating new connections with employers. Here are a few quick tips on how to prepare:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Plan to dress appropriately. First impressions matter; business casual attire is required for the career fair.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check out which companies are registered for the fair on the Handshake event page. Click on \u201cView All Employers\u201d on the fair event page to see a list of all employers registered, a description of the companies, and the types of positions they are hiring for (internships, full time, or part time). You also can view the current positions posted by an employer in Handshake to get a sense of their roles, requirements, and expectations by clicking on the company\u2019s page and viewing their current posted positions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To prioritize your time at the fair, make a list of the top five to 10 employers you want to introduce yourself to and learn more about.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Practice your \u201ccareer pitch.\u201d A career pitch explains, in 30 seconds or less, who you are, what your major or skills are, your career goals, and why you\u2019re interested in the company. You can highlight things such as: you\u2019re looking for an internship in a certain industry to get a sense of potential career paths; you\u2019re seeking a full-time opportunity after graduation that enables you to use a particular set of skills; or your values align with the brand of the company and you\u2019re planning to apply for their internship program.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>What to Bring to an In-Person Fair<\/summary>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Bring several printed copies of your resume. Be sure to have your resume reviewed by Clark\u2019s Career Services staff for proper formatting, industry keywords, and best practices on how to highlight your unique skills and experiences.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bring a notepad and a pen so you can take notes on what you learn from employers and recruiters when you inquire about how to connect with additional managers. The representative at the fair may not be the person hiring for the department or opportunity in which you\u2019re interested.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A way to hold on to the business cards you collect. Ask for business cards from people with whom you plan to follow up, not from every representative at the fair. It\u2019s easy to fall back on asking for a card if you aren\u2019t comfortable networking. Take this opportunity to make connections!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>How to Connect with Employers at an In-Person Fair<\/summary>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Introduce yourself with your career pitch (see above under How to Prepare for tips on your career pitch). Say \u201chello\u201d to the representatives and welcome them to Clark \u2014 employers sometimes send alumni to represent their company! Talk about your career interests and ask questions about the company and their opportunities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bring your positive attitude and be sensitive to other students who may be waiting to speak with the same employer by keeping your questions brief and offering to follow up at a later time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Be courteous of employer materials. Always check with employers before taking materials from their tables.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Send a thank you letter or email to representatives you meet at the fair, even if they don\u2019t have an immediate opening for a position. The connections you make now can be invaluable later. Reaffirm your interest, follow up with direct questions you may have, and say thank you. Here\u2019s a sample message:<br><br>Dear (insert representative\u2019s name),We met two weeks ago at the Clark University Career Fair. I enjoyed speaking with you about (insert company name and position or conversation topic) and was impressed by the company philosophy and opportunities. I wanted to reaffirm my interest in the (insert position or potential program) at your company. Given the qualifications and skills that you highlighted as ideal for this role, I believe that my (insert your related experience and interests) would be a great fit for the opportunity. I have attached an updated copy of the resume I gave you at the Career Fair.
