There are some things that you can do to make sure you succeed at a career fair. These are tips to help make your presence felt at an information session. Don't be afraid to dress up, make a good impression, and avoid crowds.
Dress professionally
Dress professionally if you're attending a careers fair. This means that you should wear a suit, sport coat and a shirt. A nice blouse or sweater is appropriate for women. Both should be clean and pressed. A small amount of jewelry is appropriate.
Before you go to the careers fair, take the time to research the company. Find out what their workplace attire is like and learn about their company. A few flyers and giveaways may be sent to you by the company, so make sure you have somewhere to store them. Keep your appearance professional as you interview many people.
Prepare a pitch for 30 seconds
You can meet with recruiters at companies that are hiring when you attend a career fair. You can prepare your elevator pitch beforehand and bring along your resume. A list of questions you'd like to ask the recruiter can be created. This will allow you to feel more confident and prepare you for any possible questions.

A good elevator pitch should include at least two to three key points. They should highlight your abilities, professional goals, and previous experiences. It should be customized to each company and job.
Be courteous
A careers fair can be overwhelming. Make sure you are polite and friendly when approaching employers. It also helps to prepare for the day by researching the company you are interviewing with. Doing your research will make your resume more interesting and help you impress employers. You can also be polite to others and remember to maintain eye contact. If you don't have the ability to shake hands with someone, you can simply nod your head and wave a quick wave.
When interviewing for an employer, you should be ready to make a brief introduction. Always keep your resume or CV on hand and ready to talk about your interests and academic experience. It is important to thank the employer for the interview. Ask questions and keep them brief.
Avoid crowds
There are ways to avoid stress at career fairs. One way to avoid crowds at fairs is by staying away from them. First of all, you should wear a comfortable, lightweight outfit. Don't wear a heavy coat and don't forget to bring comfortable shoes for walking. Also, remember to bring water to stay hydrated. Secondly, you should bring snacks and small drinks with you. These snacks can provide energy and prevent you from becoming hungry.
It's also important to select the right device. It is preferable to use a laptop, desktop or tablet instead of a propped down tablet. Wear headphones to protect your ears if you attend a virtual career fair. Remember to make eye contact while talking with recruiters. When a job opportunity opens, they'll remember you.

Introduce yourself
It is important to introduce your self at a careers fair. This is your first chance to make a good impression. Make sure to be well prepared with your elevator pitch, academic and extracurricular achievements, and career interests. Once you have introduced your self, you should follow up with a thank-you note.
Be sure to bring multiple copies your resume and a portfolio with your best work. Don't dress up, but dress professionally. Avoid walking around with your eyes glued to your phone or sipping coffee. Refer to your previous work experience, and tell recruiters why you are the right candidate for them.
