Career Fairs, whether offered at colleges and universities or sponsored by an outside organization, can offer an excellent opportunity for help juniors and seniors to research a variety of careers and companies, to make informed major decisions about employment. However, due to the sheer size of the events and number of employers and participants, these career fairs also can be overwhelming.

Career fairs are excellent resources to learn about different industries, which companies are hiring, average starting salaries, required skills, training programs and growth opportunities.

To make the most out of these events, plan ahead. At All About Careers, we recommend that job seekers: 1) Conduct research 2) Attend events with appropriate materials and 3) Find a way to differentiate themselves from competing job candidates.

Companies host booths to meet potential employees. Representatives, usually hiring managers or recruiters, bring and display materials about their respective companies. Those materials include background, products and services information, and information on the benefits of joining their firm. Representatives are available to talk briefly with attendees and to exchange information on the next steps involved in the interviewing process.

To make attending a career fair a more productive experience, job seekers should follow these tips:

Research

Find out in advance which companies will be attending. These lists are usually available online or through career assistance offices.
Prioritize which companies are most important to visit, and plan time to visit each booth. If a company looks interesting, visit its website so you can be knowledgeable when talking with booth representatives.
